Girl - I think I'm about to get my period soon but I don't know how to talk to my mom about it?

Question

I don't know how to talk to my mom about the things that are happening to my body. How do I make it as comfortable as possible so when I talk to her(when I can) it's not awkward

Answer

Trust me when I say this, it's not easy. It actually took me 4 days after my first period to actually get a less awkard chance to talk about it to my mom. But when you think of it, she went throuh it all too and if you can keep that in mind it won't be so hard. Try starting off the conversation like this: "Mom this is a little weird but there's some thing I don't understand about my body please explain." or "Mom I think I'm around the age where I'm going through puberty so I need some advice." Giving a calm and smooth entrance will keep the umcomfortable silence away, she'll understand.

Answer

You have to think about it like this: every woman goes through this so there isn't anything to be embarrassed or uncomfortable about because your mom knows the problems that come with having a period every month.

Answer

Just go up to her and say Mum, I think I'm getting my period soon. Could you please explain to me ......... She should be glad that you are seeking help and not secluding yourself
