Dear Friend,
When we took showers after P.E. I noticed that all the other girls have lots of pubic hair. I don't have as much. Is something wrong with me?
Sincerely,
Me
Dear Friend,
Somebody help me. I saw some blood on my underpants today. Am I dying? I'm only 13!
Sincerely,
Me
Dear Friend,
I am only 9 years old and I think my breasts are starting to grow. I wear lots of shirts and sweatshirts and walk sort of hunched over so that no one will notice. I'm so embarrassed. What should I do?
Sincerely,
Me
Dear Friend,
I'm really excited because my breasts have just started to grow. But I am worried because they are so sore. Yesterday a boy bumped into me at school by accident and it hurt so bad I burst out crying. What should I do? Is something wrong with me?
Sincerely,
Me
