To tell you the truth, the term "dry period" is not a medical one so I'm
not sure what your teacher was talking about. As far as when your
period will come, it can certainly vary from month to month and person
to person. Impossible to predicti but with no vaginal sex, it shouldn't
be a problem.
Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
