My teenage daughter has reached the age of puberty. How do I explain her about the menstrual cycles?

It is always best to share the right information with her at the right time, so that she can be prepared for the day when she gets her first period. As debolina mentioned, i would also say prepare a sanitary kit and keep for her. you can start talking about it to her while you both are watching TV and the ad pops up, or when you are in the store and see sanitary napkins. just ask her casually if she knows what they are. you may be surprised to know that she already knows about periods. a friend of mine broached the subject with her 10 year old who was already aware of everything, as they had been taught in school. so bring it up, keep the conversation normal and also tell her about your own experiences.

initially your daughter may get a little scared or grossed out, which is very normal, but i think you should tell her things as they are. it is better to get her prepared now than suddenly experiencing it in school or outside, when she is not yet aware of what is happening to her body. also, i am sure she will be taught about the same in school. if not, you can start the conversation by talking about the sanitary pad ads she may have noticed. tell her this is the way for a female body to prepare for nurturing a baby later on in life. keep it simple, relaxed and very normal, so that she does not feel it is a scary thing that will be a burden to her.

be normal about it when you bring up the topic. tell her that there are certain changes that people go through, that is why girls look different from women, and boys look different from men. broach the subject casually, like when you both are sitting relaxed at home. you can prepare a sanitary kit and give her, while talking. keep a few pads, some cotton, a new set of underwears, some body mist and wipes for her. tell her about the changes, but not in too much detail. you can ask her to carry this bag with her at all times, so that she is always ready whenever she starts the period.

Just tell her straight what menstrual cycle is. And how she is not the chosen one but all girls go through it and it is perfectly normal. When she settles down a bit then tell her about your experience, when you had your first period and how it all went. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/tween-and-teen-health/in-depth/menstruation/art-20046004 http://www.wikihow.com/Talk-to-Your-Daughter-About-Her-Period

Be as factual and straightforward as you can. I find that teens do not deal well with emotional explanations and dramatics especially from their parents. I found it mortifying when my mom explained menses in the presence of my dad and brothers. I also found that visual illustrations help a lot. It would feel like a science class and not too embarrassing to listen to.

Hi, It is better to have a very casual and relaxed conversation with your daughter about this . These times can be hard initially, hence just calm her by telling beforehand that it is a natural process and everything will be fine :) May be share your experiences with her and make it really interesting conversation:)
