ASK VICKI A QUESTION

It’s only natural to want or need some puberty advice when you start to see your body changing.

If you have a question about periods, changes to your body or how you're feeling and can’t find the answer on here, ask Vicki for some advice. Just type in your question and press submit.

If our agony aunt Vicki can help you, she'll post an answer in ‘Your questions answered’ page, so don't forget to keep checking it. You don’t have to give us your name, it’s completely anonymous and nobody will know it was you that asked. Vicki knows a lot about periods and sanitary protection but she isn’t an expert on everything and isn’t medically trained, which means she may not be able to answer every question. But don't worry, if she can’t help, she'll suggest where you should go for the right advice.

Yesterday I had a bad headache and terrible cramps yesterday night while I was at girl guides. I was pretty sure you could get cramps before your period, so I googled it. I also googled if you can get headaches before your very first period and it said yes. Does that mean I while be getting my period soon?

I've just started my second period, should I tell my mum about it? The first time I told her, but I don't know if I should tell her now.

Hi Vicki, I'm feeling really worried and I don't know how to reassure myself. So my friend came round today (she lives quite far away) and we just hung out at mine to start with and then decided to go out. We walked round the block and then headed towards the town centre (about 20 mins walk) we went there, went round the shops and then started walking home. On the way home, you have to walk through a valley, we got to the bottom of the hill and noticed that there was this guy behind us (he looked middle-aged but perfectly normal) we then walked up the hill where there are some houses, we assumed he must live there and thought nothing of it but then we headed further on through a passage to my estate and he was still there, we kept walking towards home but he was still there the whole time, we then came to a road where there were lots of people getting home and he was further behind us then got closer again, we were both getting creeped out by then and at a moment when the road curved we dodged down a passageway and kept going and we'd lost him. I don't know if he was following us or not but I just feel really anxious that he followed us even though he was probably just on his way home. For context I live in a good area and nothing like this has ever happened before. I don't even know if he really followed us or if we imagined it and he just happened to be going the same way. Whatever it was I just can't shake the feeling and it's stressing me out!
