Hi, I can't help with particular problem, but just wanted to let you know that I started menstruating at Age 10. So your daughter is only 2 years early. I am now 55 and just stopped having my periods 6 mos. ago. (45 years of that stuff) But, TV news reports say a woman is healthier the longer she has her periods. Also heard on TV that girls are getting their periods earlier now. You might want to take an informal survey yourself, or ask the school nurse for info. You might be surprised, and your daughter might feel better, knowing others are also "getting their period."
