Question:

Answers:
Yes, most girls will start between 10-13 but it is okay to not start until you are 14-16. After that it would be good to get checked by a doctor.

Yes sweetie. Count yourself lucky that you haven't gotten it yet. Just be patient. It will come in time. SOme people don't get their periods until they are 16! I got mine when I was 12 years old. You are normal. Enjoy the period-free months while they last..trust me.

I didn't start mine until I was almost 18. Trust me, don't be in a hurry.

i didn't start mine til i was 15,yes it's normal

Yes, it is very normal. Our bodies do sometimes skip a month or so. Go to the library and you can check out some books that will help you out with this. I am not being mean or sarcastic, but when I was a young woman just starting to develop I started reading up on it and learning more about it and I even asked my mother many questions. If you don't have a mom or don't think you can talk to your mom, maybe there is a close friend you can talk to. I had a close friend that was always asking me questions because her mother basically would not help her.

The only time you should be really worried about that is if you have engaged in sexual intercourse.

its normal i didn't get mine until i was 14 1/2. trust me you don't want it

Yes. girls bodies are different. no one knows when dat time of the month is going to start

YES SWEETIE..MY BESTFRIEND DIDN'T GET HER'S TILL WE WERE 17.SO ENJOY IT!! TRUST ME!

yes some girls just get it later. This is something you should discuss with your mom

no don't worry there are loads of people who start late - and really its not that late. my best friend didnt start until she was 14. its normal for a girl to start her periods at any age between 11 and 16. u will b fine!

Yes. You're still well in the normal range. It is based partly on your body fat - if you're very small and slim, you might start your periods a little later. Don't worry at all yet.

Yea thats normal, i got mine at 14years old. Dont let it bother you. In fact your lucky because you have a smaller amount of years you have to deal with it! plus more time to grow (if your short). Some people dont get their period until 16-then you can worry.

i started mine in August last year(im 11) and ive found out that ur periods arent regular 4 about 3 years. its hard coz u neva no wen ur guna hav 1 but i tel u - keep a diary of then so u can try and find out roughly where ur pattern is.

yep. like everyone said. your luckey! enjoy it while its not there! :D

alot of girls start their periods at a different age, I wouldn't get to worked up about it. If you are worried go see a doctor, they will be able to check and make sure there is nothing wrong. My daughter is 11 and she as been have cramps for about 6 months and has not started yet. I think every womans body develops different from another womans. Give it some time it will eventually start.

hunny your fine! just be glad that you haven't got it yet cause it is not fun!! but don't worry because it is normal.

Frenchie,

Every female is different and what's normal for one person is different for another. Some health experts believe that the onset of the menstruation (menarche) is generally around the same time of the mother. But please do some online research yourself or ask your pediatrician. If you are able, ask your mother when she started her period. Mensturation, while sometimes painful and inconvenient is wonderful and marks the beginning of womanhood. Cherish yourself. Women are the cradle of civilization.

I think I have no say in this matter (since I'm a guy) but my friends didn't get their periods until they were 14. Maybe you just have to wait a little bit.

And oh, it hurts. Trust me. I've seen my girlfriend throw tantrums and then blame it on PMS when she's done.

that is normal cause some people don't have their period until their 16 cause u could have it between 10-16 years of age.i havent had my period and im 13 years old.

yeah, totally. ur so lucky trust me girl it ain't fun.

Yes that is normal. I didn't get mine until I was 14. There are plenty of benefits for a later period. You grow until you hit your period. May be a late bloomer but the long-term benefits will pay off. Periods can be tough and consider yourself lucky that it hasn't happened yet. Womanhood is coming, I guarantee you that..don't be in a rush. Enjoy this while it lasts! ;)

Experience!

It can be a family tendency to start puberty late. I had my first period at age 16, as did my daughter. So, talk to your Mom and other family members to see if this is an inherited trait either from your Mom of Dad's family. There seeems to be a trend toward earlier puberty in the US now, so it makes it more difficult on someone who is delayed like yourself. It might also be helpful to talk to a gynecologist (Dr. who deals with womens health and delivers babies etc) who can reassure you. You are not alone.but I do remember feeling like I would never start having periods, so I did what I could to reassure my daughter that this was normal for us.

Yep, my gram did`nt have her period until she was 15.

It`s normal don`t worry.
