The Menstrual Cycle -- Your Questions Answered

One of the most important events of your growing-up years is getting your first period. The beginning of menstruation, which is the technical word for having your period, means that you're leaving childhood and becoming a young woman.

Learning to be comfortable with the physical and emotional changes that are taking place can be both exciting and scary. A free booklet published by ADVIL®, "The Menstrual Cycle - Your Questions Answered," can help. It provides answers to commonly posed questions - questions that you and your friends are probably asking, such as:

• Why does menstruation occur?
  

• When do you first get your period?
  

• Is there anything you should know before getting your period?
  

• Are there other changes that occur when you get your period?
  

• Does every teen experience pain or discomfort during her period?
  

• Do you need to see a doctor when you get your first period?
  

In addition to reassuring, common-sense answers, the ADVIL® FREE BOOKLET offers suggestions to make this important event easier, and discusses the signs to look for in anticipation of your first period.

For most women, the beginning of menstruation is an exciting event, and they quickly become accustomed to getting a monthly period. By educating yourself about menstruation and puberty, you'll become more comfortable with these important changes.
