Answers:
it was the first time getting it!?!? well congrats!!
if it is then you have nothing to worry about!. you just started so your period is going to be irregular!. its normal!. its going to be like that for a good few months!. && HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY!! Www@Answer-Health@Com

Oh, sweetie, were you able to talk to a female family member or friend about this!?

If you feel fine, then you should not be worrying!. It is your first period and your body is just adjusting to different hormone levels!.

You did not mention how heavy your period was, so that leads me to believe that it was light to normal, which is nothing to worry about at your age!.

However, if your period continues in to last for more than 5-7 days, or it becomes heavier, I would definitely talk to someone you trust!.

Good luck,

Don't worry you are freaking out over nothing!. Trust me!. I got my first period when I was 11 and it was a longer period!. You're periods will most likely be irregular for the next few months maybe even years!. They could be long or short and sometimes you may not get it every month!. This is when you first start out!. I didn't get on a real schedule until three years after my first period!. It's nothing trust me!. It's just your body working through puberty and getting used to the changes!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

My mother always told me that a period is supposed to last 3-7 days!. When I was 12 my period lasted me about 7 days!. My mother was a gynecologist so I took her word for it!. But since it is your very first period I dont think you should worry about it so much but if it bothers you should talk to your parents about it, it would be best if you went to a gynecologist!. She/He can tell you and explain to you exactly what the problem is!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well that isn't good! For women over the age of 16 and have not had a period!.!.!. you all might have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome!.!. I do! I just discovered it because i haven't got my period and I am 24!. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome!.!.!. women look nothing to me scared of some women have male hormons which will cost you to get unwated hair in places you just don't want it, other women get down spots that come and do away!. email me I will give you more infromation I have reading a lot about it!.!. vcadena02@yahoo!.com
The the period thing well if it keeps happening I would see a doctor, ask him a lot of questions !.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

That is normal!. Its your first period which means your period will be irregular for a long time until your body gets used to it!. The first time is usually like that as well as the next few periods!. Don't worry it will be normal sooner or later!. That happened to me at first but now as time has gone my period is getting shorter and shorter!Www@Answer-Health@Com

its fine its actually not unheard of to have long period durations
my girlfriends periods are actually pretty long to the range from 5 to10 days how do i know!? that's not even a question anyways your fine but if your really concerned you should talk to your parents and see what they thinkWww@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, this is normal!. because ur body hasnt adapted to the cycle of the period!. its trying to choose which day it wants its starting point to be, and the ending point to be!. and ur period isnt always going to start on the same day every month!. so if it skips a day or two, its normal!. but if ur period keeps going too long, make sure to see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Because it's your first, sometimes it can be longer (or shorter) than it should be!. Wait until your next one, and if it's still abnormally long, ask your parents to make you a gynecologist appointment!. You're probably completely normal!. :-)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Many young women your age experience irregular, heavy and sometimes painful periods for the first or two!. This is extremely common, don't worry!. Your periods should eventually become shorter and more regular!. If that doesn't happen in a few years, then see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
