I'm trying to remember the title and author of a short story I read in the 1980's in Asimov's about a teenage girl who turned into a werewolf when she got her period.

This is likely Sarah McKee Charnas's 1989 short-story "Boobs".
First publication was in Asimov's.
The story is available for free on-line, so it's easy to check, but the plot revolves around the emotional life of a young lady returning to school with visible secondary sexual characteristics, getting teased about it, discovering that she turns into a werewolf during that time of month, and finding self-worth and freedom therein. Oh, and a little revenge.
The story was nominated for the Nebula and won the Hugo and other awards.

Thank you so much. I have to ask: are you related? I went to college with an Andy Charnas, who initially turned me on to her writing.– VoxwomanCommented May 16, 2018 at 17:52

1No relation that I'm aware of. There are few enough McKees that meeting another is notable, but enough that the relationship is usually fairly tenuous. Commented May 16, 2018 at 17:56
