I was about 9 years old when I was told about your period and my sister would always tell me that I would die if I never got my period. Everyday I would check if I had my period. I got so scared cause I never got it for awhile that I was going to die LOL When I was 11 when I first got it and I was soo relived I got it cause I didnot want to die!
