When a girl gets her period, does that mean she is ready for sex and to have children?

No, menstruation is a natural process and should not be considered a signal to have sex or become pregnant. While it is normal and healthy to become sexually active at some point in adolescence, there is no definition for specific "readiness" for sexual activity. Both girls and boys should wait until they are ready and feel comfortable before engaging in sexual activity, and they should always use protection to avoid unintended pregnancy.
