A girl getting her period at age 8 is possible but rare.

Most girls normally get their periods between the ages of 12 and 13 however some girls may not get their period until around 15 or 16 years of age.

It's not very common for a girl to get her period at age 8 but I did go to school with a girl that did happen to get her period at age 8 so it is entirely possible although rare for a girl of age 8 to get her period.

However most girls will not get their periods until around ages 12 or 13.

Everyone is different though so the girl might get her period earlier or later than another girl.
