I’m 15 and have had light brown orangish watery discharge for 4 days. I’ve otherwise had white or clear discharge for the past year. Is this my first period?

This is almost textbook first period symptoms. During the first couple of years of menstruation, your periods can be super irregular and appear in a variety of shades, consistencies and duration. Don’t worry, but be prepared for heavier flow in the coming months.
