Is it normal to have menstruation at the age of 10?

For children, development is regular, but with the continuous improvement of people's living standards, whether in nutrition and diet or in other aspects, children's development may be advanced, and some children may even have precocious puberty. Because everyone's situation is different, the development process will also be different.

As long as girls’ menstruation age is within this “age group”, it is normal!

For girls, the time of their menarche will be different, so there is no need to worry too much. When the menstruation comes, it will come naturally, and there is no need to have too much psychological burden. However, the age at which a girl's menarche occurs may also affect the probability of a woman developing breast cancer, and may also reflect whether a woman suffers from primary amenorrhea. Therefore, the timing of menstruation has a greater impact on girls.

Generally speaking, the age of girls' first menstruation should be around 12-16 years old. If you have your period before the age of 10, you may have precocious puberty. However, if your menstrual period is still delayed after you turn 18, it is best to see a doctor immediately for examination to see if there is any disease problem in your body or if you have primary amenorrhea.

Before a girl’s first menstruation, she may experience these 3 main symptoms!

1. Feeling unwell

For girls, they may experience physical discomfort symptoms a few days before their first menstruation, such as becoming increasingly sleepy, extremely lazy, not wanting to wake up in the morning, and having no energy during the day. If a child reaches a certain age and experiences this phenomenon for a period of time, it is likely that the period is coming, and parents should make preparations in advance.

2. Panic and dizziness

Many girls may experience dizziness and nausea before their period. In severe cases, they may even experience nausea and retching. Therefore, if a child has been nauseous or vomiting for no apparent reason for a period of time, parents need to pay attention, as it may be the time of menstruation.

3. Stomach pain

Regarding the signs of a girl's menarche, the most obvious symptom is stomach pain. Therefore, if a girl does not eat cold food or bad food on a regular basis, but always feels abdominal pain, it may be a reminder that the menstrual period is coming.
