The average age of menarche (beginning of menstruation) is 12.5 years of age in the US. Less than 10% of U.S. girls start to menstruate before 11 years of age, and 90% of all US girls are menstruating by 13.75 years of age.

Age of first menstruation depends upon many factors, including genetics and nutrition. If your mother had her first period at a late age, chances are that you will, too. If you are small or anorexic, you may get your first period at a later age than someone of normal weight.

How old you are when you start your period varies; the menstrual cycle can start at any time usually between the ages of 9 and 13 years old although some girls may get them later than that.
