Answers:
Lucky you, but in a few years you might get some cramping. I got my period when I was 12 and a few years later I got the usual cramps. Then when I was 15 or 16 I got really bad period pain and have only just found ways to ease it. I'm not saying that will happen to you. 10% of women have horrible pain, while the other 90% just get cramps. And it's just an uncomfortable feeling. Sometimes the pain can get worse.
2-4 days with discharge a week before sounds normal.Health Question & Answer

What makes you think you should be getting cramps.?
Cramps are caused by hormones called prostaglandins, these trigger the muscles of the uterus to contract and squeeze the lining out. The muscles are the same ones that push a baby out during childbirth, so they are very strong. Some women may have higher levels of prostaglandin
