Is it true that most people get their first period in like autumn or winter, if so why? ❤️
Hi, the season someone gets their first period can make patterns seem more real than they are 💛
There’s no scientific evidence that most people get their first period in autumn or winter.
It’s more likely to be a myth that’s been passed around.
Everyone’s experience is different, so a first period can arrive in spring, summer, autumn or winter, depending on the person ✨
Hope this helps 💖
