My daughter started her period about a year ago. I think what she most needed to hear was that this was normal and expected. We talked frankly about how hormones can cause mood shifts and I let her know that the mood shifts happen with most of us. I also tried to teach her to be more aware of her moods and to learn when she is being overly emotional due to her cycle so she could begin the process of learning to deal with this new reality.
Even though talking about this is uncomfortable for you, I do truly believe that you are the best person to help her understand and accept the changes in her body.
Good luck. Your daughter sounds like a wonderful girl.
