Hi viki, My piorid is a few days late and I'm not sure why? Should I be worried?

Show Answer

For the first few years your period may be erratic with long gaps in between each one. This is very normal and simply because your body is working out the right cycle just for you.

How do I tell a male teacher that I am on my period for swimming. He is really young and I'm so embarrassed, what should I say, what sort of words do I use?

Show Answer

Ask your parents to write him a note explaining the reason for your non attendance in class. When you feel ready consider using tampons when on  your period and needing to swim, they are really easy to use and give you the freedom to carry on with your life regardless of whether your period is with you or not.

Check out the blog When is the right time to use a tampon?

Lately my vagina is bothering. I almost feel it 'itchy' kind of. It temps be to start bothering it and it gets really annoying. Do you know what I can? Is this normal?

Show Answer

You may have a small vaginal infection, or simply be sensitive to a new toiletry, washing detergent or toilet cleaner. Have a chat to your mum, or the person who cares for you and let them know of this problem and they will most likely purchase some cream for you, or pop you along to your doctor for a chat.

Hi, my self esteem is really low 5 days of the week and normal the other two days ( estimated ) and I feel really ugly some days because of my hooded eyes, small lips and my extremely pale hair. I also feel short being the shortest and least sexually mature of my friends. How can I get back on track to feeling better about myself? Thanks.

Show Answer

Learn to love how you look and highlight the things you like and there will be many I am sure. We all have a unique look that can be beautiful if we own it and make the most of what nature gave us.  See our confidence blogs under the Emotions tabs on the website.

Hi Vicky, I asked you a couple months ago about having gone through most stages of puberty to a certain extent but my breasts not growing past the bud. I had just turned 13 and I thought there was something wrong. In the past months I have noticed that the size of my breast bud seems to bigger and smaller on different days but they never really grow. I hate looking like a little kid when all my friends have matured and gotten their period. Its been 2 years and a half since I noticed my first sign of puberty ( pubic hair) but I feel like I should look and be more mature after all this time, should I be worried? Thanks (:

Show Answer

Your journey through puberty is unique to you and it is never a good idea to compare your progress to those around you. Nor does it make your friends any more mature if they are more developed at this time.

Hi Vicky, A boy in my class likes me, he gave me things for Valentines Day. However, I dont like him like that OR as a friend but I dont like hurting peoples feelings. My friend me keep bringing up the subject. What do I do?

Show Answer

Be honest say you are flattered by his attention but for you there is no attraction and you do not want to build his hopes up. If he tries to offer you any further gifts decline his offer saying you do not feel it is appropriate to accept them. If he is a nice boy he will understand and leave you alone.

I have had pubic hair for 2 and a half years and Ive had discharge for 1 year, armpit hair for 6 months now and breast butds for almost a year now but I still look like a little kid on the outside despite turning 14 in May. Why arent my breasts or hips growing, why am I not growing faster. Ive read online about the general order and speed of puberty but I dont match at all so is this normal, should I be worried for not visibly growing In the past 6 months. Help. Thank you

Show Answer

There really is no set order for puberty, we are all unique and so will  your development be.
