Hi,
It's quite natural to be concerned about starting your period especially if a lot of your friends have. They are many factors as to why some start earlier than others.
Heredity, stress, fatigue, and eating habits and/or eating disorders can all delay the onset of menses or period.
What did your doctor suggest when you inquired about growth hormone.? She should have a good overall history on you which can be used to direct
treatment if it's necessary.
Hormones are something that our body not us control, if left alone to nature. They direct when your period starts and stops.
There is no "normal " age for a period to start; I"ve known girls as young as 10 start and others who don't start until 16-17.
Talk to your doctor again to rule out any abnormal hormonal imbalances and if she isn't concerned just relax and it will surprise you one day when yu least expect it. There's no rush-ask others who have had a period for 30-35 years! They'll probably say "enjoy the time without the work involved with a period." Good luck and remember stressing- out in itself can delay the process.

Hey Girl! Your definetly not on this boat alone, my mom didnt get her period until she was 17 years old! I'm sure you will eventually start getting your period and you have every right to be concerned since I'm sure most girls your age have it already. Since you say you've developed quite a bit since you last visited the doctor and you have discharge, I'm sure it wont be too much longer until you start getting your period. Health Question & Answer
You could possibly never have a period. Some women don't. If you're underweight or very athletic, your period can stop even if you've had it before. Given that you've had growth issues, it could be related, but it's also very possible that you're just a late bloomer. At 5'3" and 97 lbs, you might be a little under weight. Consider improving your diet - eat healthy foods. It may help you. Health Question & Answer
Hi. I'm 25 and 5'2", 97 lbs. I think you're on the small side, like me, but you do not have anything to worry about as far as growth is concerned. You are not freakishly small by any means. Your hormones are probably fine. Everybody develops differently--some larger and some smaller.
As for your period, it follows discharge. May be a couple months or a couple years from onset of discharge, but you will get it. I had friends 16 before they had theirs. Hang in there. You'll be fine!Health Question & Answer

I was the same as you...i didnt start my period til i was 15, nearly 16. i was tiny too, about ur weight but a little shorter. My friend was really skinny and didnt start her period til she was 17. Find out when your mom and grandma started...for instance my mom was 14, my grandma was 15. You are probly a late bloomer. try not to worry, some girls just start later then others...i know i was embarrassed to tell others i didnt have a period. but we are all different. as long as you are eating healthy (no eating disorders) you shouldnt worry.

did you know some people dont start till there 18! dont worry tho. the longer u dont have it the better...its such a pain to deal with...usually skinny peple dont get it as soon...i this it may have to do with the lack of nutirments and vitmines and stuffHealth Question & Answer
