I beg to differ, coming from someone who actually gets a period.

It varies from person to person. For me, I often have cramps for the first and second days of my period, which kinda feel like sharp stomach aches that make it difficult to stand up straight. Also in the first couple of days, if I'm standing for too long it feels like there's pressure in my groin; that's sort of a harder feeling to describe, but it's incredibly uncomfortable. I don't know what to compare it to, but it's nothing like the pressure you feel when you have to pee. It's alleviated by simply sitting down, though. As for the actual blood... it just sort of feels like something involuntarily coming out - that is, when I actually notice it. Not like peeing because with peeing, you're in control of it and you have the feeling of needing to pee. Menstrual blood will just come out whenever it damn well pleases and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it, aside from using menstrual products or taking birth control. It sort of functions like a thing that's just happening in the background and unless the symptoms are severe enough, it doesn't really impact day to day life much, aside from perhaps a few extra trips to the bathroom or more consideration when getting dressed or picking activities for the day.

So do like girls approximate the day they should start using menstrual products until it does come and pass

You just suddenly feel wet down there. As long as you get enough vitamins and are prepared with a pad or something, it should be relatively painless and easy to manage.

Pretty much. It really differs from person to person. Some people experience really regular periods, so they can approximate the exact day. Others experience very irregular ones and sort of just have to keep an eye out for it and hope for the best. Birth control would also allow you to control when you get your period, making it easy to prepare and whatnot.
My bad sorry..
No worries :P
