hey wellcasters today we're going to
cover puberty from the
female perspective and if you don't know
what that means it might be because you
a
haven't gone through puberty yet or b
you're a boy so boys
listen up this is what we're about to
cover our periods
pubic hair your boobs and cellulite
hang out if you want section one your
period
and how to prepare for it so somewhere
between the ages of 7 and 13
your ovaries start pumping out the
hormone estrogen
essentially this is to help prepare your
body for an eventual pregnancy
your ovaries are filled with thousands
of eggs every month until menopause
your body passes an egg from your
ovaries through the fallopian tube
into the uterus which at this point is
lined with blood and extra tissue
which would help nourish and protect a
hypothetical baby
but when you're not pregnant your body
spends the next five to seven days
getting rid of that stuff which it
doesn't need and this results in your
period
it sounds all really straightforward but
it kinda doesn't feel that way so
be prepared first of all your hormones
surge and it can do funny things to your
mood
for your very first period the ladies
here at wellcast suggest that you keep a
stash of pads
and an extra pair of panties around to
avoid any
embarrassing accidents which happened to
me a lot it was really sad
section two while we're on the subject
of your nether regions
let's talk about your hair well casters
if you look
real close you have hair all over your
body
the fine short vellus hair on your chest
back and cheeks help regulate
temperature and protect from
little tiny things its cousin terminal
hair which you find on your head
in your armpits on other parts of your
face and
in the nether regions is coarser and
means to protect
you'll probably be tempted to shave
pluck or wax unwanted hair
and we've all been there and some of us
have gone a little bit too far
and the good news and the bad news is
guess what
it comes back welcome to womanhood if
you so choose
find the hair removal method that's
right for you but make sure that you do
your research first on its risks and
proper use
section three ouch my boobs tenderness
around the nipples and breast area
is totally normal as your breasts you
know fill out and here's the bad news
they probably won't grow at the same
rate as each other
again totally normal you might notice
some stretch marks as well if you
experience
rapid growth good for you and your
breasts hips and thighs
totally normal please don't worry the
stretch marks will fade with time
and i promise your boobs will stop
hurting until
you are pmsing and then they will hurt
again they're going to hurt once a month
section 4 accept the cellulite the
cottage cheesy look
cellulite causes is simply fat living
just beneath the skin
surface as your body grows you're
probably going to notice it a bit
especially around your thighs but guess
what
most women and girls have cellulite and
it's almost entirely genetic
there's a certain amount of fat your
body needs to continue and fully grow
and develop into a woman
think about it this way ladies for the
rest of your life
your body is going to hang on to fat
differently and the reason is
deep down inside it's thinking wait we
might have a baby
well ladies of wellcast that was fun
just kidding i know it wasn't we here at
wellcast hope you learned a thing or two
about your body and
your friend's body and if you feel like
the whole world is collapsing and around
you
or you feel like an ogre or you feel
like your face has been taken over by
this weird disease and you're never
gonna be attractive ever again
look around you every girl that you know
is going through the same thing
