When a girl's body develops to a certain extent, menarche will come, and menstruation is one of the important signs of female sexual maturity. Before the onset of menarche, a girl's body may experience some reactions, but inexperienced girls may not notice them. So, what are the signs of impending menarche?
Breast development: Generally, within 2 years after a girl's breasts begin to develop, menarche begins. Therefore, adolescent girls should observe their own development more and actively learn some basic physiological knowledge.
Suddenly growing taller: Adolescent girls grow very quickly, and if they notice a sudden increase in height and weight, menarche may occur within about six months.
Abdominal pain: Before menarche, girls may feel abdominal pain, but there are no other unusual symptoms, so it may be that menarche is coming soon.
White discharge: A colorless, odorless, slightly viscous, and transparent liquid begins to appear in the hidden areas of girls, which is called white discharge and a normal physiological phenomenon. If the vaginal discharge appears red or brown with a small amount of blood streaks, then menarche will appear two or three days later.
When a girl first experiences menarche, her ovarian function and regulatory function may not be very stable, so there may be irregular menstruation within six months to a year after menarche, so there is no need to worry. As the ovaries develop and mature, they will come on time every month in the future.
