Have you ever had a fight or
argument with your BFF and,
for the life of you, you don't
know why?

Remember - as we say in our
Info Sheet  
- as you grow into puberty, you
will start to notice changes in
your emotions, or moods.  

One day you feel one way, the
next day, you may feel totally
different.  

And you used to be so
cheerful and happy!

What gives?

Are you crazy? Or weird?

No! You are a woman
experiencing menstruation.
