What should a girl do when she starts her first period?

When her period starts she should ask her mother or a nurse for some pads. Make sure to keep your vaginal area clean and do not leave a pad on for more than eight hours. If your pad already feels heavy after 2 hours consider getting a higher absorbency. Drink a lot of water and eat less fatty and salty foods to reduce feeling fatigue.

Does a period hurt?

A period will give some slight discomfort, but the pain should always be bearable. If you feel any sharp pain or it hurts to move then consult with a doctor immediately. Most girls will just feel tired and sore around their uterus area.
