You are starting a bit late it is true, but not that unusual. Mom is right that a doctor visit could reveal another issue. Count yourself blessed, most girls hate their period!
You'll start soon!
If you don't start by next year though you should go to the doc so you can start.
i dont think she should be freakin out like that. Some people are late bloomers. it isnt that normal but i dont think it is that serious
girls can start as late as 16. im 15 and i know atleast 2 girls who haven't stated theirs yet either. but i agree with ur mom. if still not my 16 then go to the doctor and get it checked out.
Everyone is different and start at different times. Maybe you are just a late bloomer. If you and she are concerned, go see a gynecologist and they can rule out any actual problems. If you have no other problems other than you haven't started, I would just wait it out.
You're ok sweetie...15 is still normal even if you haven't started, you're just a late bloomer and there's nothing wrong with that at all! You're fine to start until 17 so you still have time...goodluck !:)
honey. you will be fine. some girls don't start until they are 17. Thats really rare but its possible. Seeing a doctor will be good but it isn't anything to worry about. I am 14 and i got my period a year ago. but my cousin didn't start until she was 18!! yea i know. it seems really late but she saw a doctor about it and she said she was completely fine.
that is sad your mum is freaking out it will happen normalely dont worry
Are you a really small person?
My friend is only 5'2" and 100 pounds so she never got a period.. and she is 16. She finally went to the doctor and they gave her this pill to take and it made me gain weight. She gained 15 pounds and now gets a monthly period (and is still TINY)! Small bodies won't have periods because they don't think they are capable of housing a baby.
It may just be your build, or it can just be your body. I didn't start till I was 14, my friend started at 11! Everyone is different.
Nothing is wrong with you! Don't worry.
You will start when your body is ready! =)
I am 15 and recently got my period so dont worry
ugh you're lucky. i've had mine since 7th grade.
LOL - tell your mom to stop freaking out about it. Everyone is different! I was just like you! All of my friends started in 6th and 7th grade and I was the last one - in the Spring of 10th grade!!! I had just turned 16!! I thought it would NEVER come! But in my family, the women just get it later.
My step daughter got hers in 6th grade. My youngest daughter (by birth) is now in 6th grade and no where near getting hers. I think she will be about 8th grade before it happens. Don't worry, nothing is wrong with you - it will come. :-)
The good news is that means you will be nice and tall. They say that a girl stops growing (in height) after getting her period.
well its ok
some people just start later then others
i started when i was 13 but my older cuzin was 16 and she still hadnt started so she went to go see a doctor and they gave a pill and well she said everything went fine
so i know for sure your ok
and dont worry
it's seriously not a problem....everyone starts their period at different times, it just depends on the person. in order to start your period for the first time your b.m.i. has to be within a certain range, so if you're on either end of the weight spectrum (very overweight or very underweight) it can delay your period. if you or your mom is still worried about it, it wouldn't hurt to mention it at your next physical exam.
consider your self so lucky, ive had mine since i was 10
i'm with the majority.tell your mom it is ok... my mom got hers at 12 i didn't start till i was 16!!! i used to sit out of swimimg evey now and then so my friends wouldn't know i hadn't started yet. i now have 2 daughters. one started at 15 the other is almost 12 and is starting to get moody and pre-menstrual cramps. you will start in your own time.
