Answers:
You do nothing, except take care of yourself and alert your doctor if you notice anything different, or if you don't start your period before your sixteen!.!.I didn't start untill I was 15 and a half, so don't worry about it, it's really is totally normal girlie!

Be THANKFUL you haven't started yet, because TRUST me, its NO FUN AT ALL!.

Think about it!.!.!.uncomfortable tampons ( sometimes)!.!.!.having to change feminine products!.!.!.morning sickness!.!.!.!.stomach cramps!.!.headaches!.!.!.bloating!.!.mood swings!.!.!.I'm not saying you will get these things, but still, having a period isn't exactly a sunday walk in the park either!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think there is too much you can do!. If you are a little underweight, it could help to put on a couple of pounds!. Other than that, you'll just have to try to be patient and wait!.

Just because your mom and sisters started their period earlier, it doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with you starting later than them!. I started my period just after I turned 11 and my mom didn't start until she was almost 15!. Every person's body is different and all you can do is wait!.

If your period doesn't start soon, you could ask your mom and your doctor about going on birth control pills to help you start your period!. Good luck, sweetie!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you are in good shape then your period could start very late, such as 15 or 16!. There isnt anything to worry about, because you are still young!.
Period timings can be genetic, but there is always the odd one out ( no offence, lol) in a family cycle, so consider yourself very unique and special rather than an odd one out!.
You will start in your own time, and thats the only way it will happen!.
Your doctor is absolutely right, so if you dont start by 16, go back to the doctor and he can maybe plan a further investigation into it!.
Good luck

You're normal!. While most girls start their periods before fifteen, it's not a steadfast rule!. I've known several girls who started at fifteen or sixteen!. I know you're concerned and eager to just start your period already, but let me tell you, enjoy your time off! I started my period at eleven, had several years of the worst cramp imaginable, and now, in my mid-20s, I'm just so over menstruating!. Periods have lost all of their majesty after fourteen years of monthly hell!Www@Answer-Health@Com

There isn't anything you can do!.
It can be common to start periods late!.
If your underweight, your body can't provide enough iron to create a lining in your womb!.

You diet may not be rich enough - you could be a little anemic (nothing to worry about!)

Try eating greens like spinach & broccoli!.
Or maybe eating plain, dry roasted peanuts which are rich in vitamins!.

There is nothing wrong with being skinny but healthy!.
As long as you have a balanced diet with enough nutrients (no deprivation of food or meals) then don't worry!

Good Luck & don't hesitate to contact me !

not to worry!. i got mine at 15!. everyone's different, so don't start worrying until you are 17 or 18!. besides, this is not always true, but ive known women who have had their period at very young ages, 10 and 11, and they had more complications with their periods and with trying to have children!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Nothing is wrong!. I didn't get my period until i was 16!. It's not normal but it's a blessing!. Trust me your lucky that you don't have to deal with it yet!. :) But listen to your docter if you don't get your period when your 16 then get checked out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You may be like me i didn't start till know and i'm only 16!. It may be a late developer!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is nothing to be worried about! Many girls don't get their period until they are 16 or 17!. It is perfectly normal!. Oh, and consider yourself lucky because some of us started when we were 9 or 10!. =)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Nothing! Most girls start their periods around ages 12-17 or something like that!. If you dont get it by like 18 go see a doctor but otherwise dont worry!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just wait!. I felt the same way before I got mine!. My younger cousin started before me and I was jealous!. Now, I've had it for about two years!. It will eventually come, so no worries!.

Good LuckWww@Answer-Health@Com

nothing is wrong with you!!! gosh it takes time !.!.!. i know someone who didn't get their period till 18 !.!.!. well i got mine at 11 so just be patientWww@Answer-Health@Com

you cant do anything but wait, sorryWww@Answer-Health@Com

I just started and im 14, 15 in october!. Its normal!. I Thought that i would never start!. I wanted to just cause all the other girls would talk about it and it was embarrasing to say that i hadent!.

At the time, i was 80 lbs and 4 11!. I still am actually!. I went to a hormone docter and they took blood to see if i had the right hormone count!. I did so there was nothing they could do!.

My mom started when she was 16, but she was also very athletic!. Im not though!. Dont listen when people just say its cause your skinny!. Eating alot doesnt prove anything!. I eat alot and its hard to gain weight!. Just cause your skinnny doesnt preven you from having a period!.

Your lucky that you dont have one!. I know that you want one, but there not great at all!. Mine was super heavy and lasted 9 days!. I havent gotten it since, thank god!.

Youll know when youll get it!. I came home from a powder puff practice on a tuesday and was cramping really bad!. It hurt so bad!. It felt likereally bad gas pains!. It was on both sides of my lower stomach!. It lasted 2 hours!. The next day my lower stomach was really sore!. My mom told me that it was my period coming and to take stuff with me!. Then on thurday, i had another practice!. When i went to the bathroom to change i had started!.

You really need to be prepared though!. Always have sometihng with you!. I couldnt even feel mine!. I couldnt even tell it was wet!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
