It is important for young girls to understand that there is variation in the age menstruation begins, the length of the cycle, and the duration of the menses. This will help them to better understand their own bodies and not be alarmed if their experience is different from their peers. A and C are not accurate statements as the age of onset can vary and menstruation is not an illness. D is not accurate as there is no reason why girls cannot participate in physical education during menstruation.
