Maybe: Some women have a small amount of vaginal discharge all the time. Others have none except for their menses. According to your profile, you are 31 years old, so this must not be about you. If the person in question is having a chronic vaginal discharge, it won't resolve with her 1st period. She should be seen by a doctor to see what is causing the discharge.

Menarche - no: Menarche usually occurs between ages 11 & 13 in the US. However for some their period could start as early as age 9 & for others not until 16. Before you have a period, you will have noticed breast development, pubic hair & white to yellowish vaginal discharge. Before the first period a girl may feel bloated, develop cramps in legs or abdomen & feel moody (depressed or anxious).
