Answers:
At this age, your period will often be irregular!.

I used to freak out about it all the time as well, but I got confirmation from a few women, including a respected nurse, who said that this is completely normal and natural!.

Don't even worry!. One time I didn't get my period for approx!. 5 months!. I was extremely scared, but nothing was wrong with me!. When you are a teenager, your periods are irregular randomly!.

If you are sexually active, you may want to take that into consideration!. Otherwise, you are completely FINE!. =]

If problems keep persisting, I would speak with a nurse or your doctor!. But for now, you're good to go!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well, as far as worrying would depend on whether or not you are relying on the birth control pill for not getting pregnant!. I am sure since you have been having various illnesses and infections, that you have been on antibiotics!. Some of the most commonly prescribed for illnesses such as yours (amoxicillin or anything ending in cillin) actually lessen the strength and effectiveness of the birth control pill!. Your pharmacists should have noticed that you were prescribed both and told you to use back up birth control protection!. Once you are no longer taking your anitbiotics, you must remember that your birth control pill is not instantly effective!. You have to take it for a while for it to be at optimum strength!.

You're young still so maybe your period hasn't become regular yet, I don't know!. If you just started college and studying for your a-levels, then maybe you're a bit stressed out about them!. Stress can change when your period occurs sometimes!. And also illness can make a difference when your period happens too!. I'd still go in and get checked by your doctor especially if there is a change you might be pregnant just to make sure and then you wouldn't have to worry!. Good luck I hope this helped some!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yeah I am agreeing unless you had sex unprotected during those anti's you should be ok!.!.!.while I am still concerned it is a whole 2 weeks late I would say try relaxing a bit more since you have been sick and wait for it to come down!. If it doesnt come down in a few more days I would seek medical advice!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

i def wouldnt worry yet im 16 to and your body isnt proberlly grown yet therefore your hormones will be all over the place causing lateness or sometimes even earlyness in your period!. i didnt have one for 3 months but it was perfectly fine afterwards!. go to the doctors after 6 months thats the recomened time the doctor advices!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think you should go talk to your doctor!.
When I was that age though, I didn't get mine for like 3 months!.
The doctor told me it happens sometimes, something about your body still not at a regular pace!.!.!.But you should still get it checked out, it could be affected by your diet and maybe an unknown illness!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Being ill and on antibiotics can disrupt your period!. Wait until your next period is due and then if it hasnt come then go to your doctor!. But try not to worry about it as this will only make it worse and could delay it even more! Good Luck xWww@Answer-Health@Com

do you smoke were you worried
maybe becasue of taht
and you are 16 it happen to my sister when she was younguer because of the age
it can also be because of the antibiotic

It could be your illnesses, but you have to ask yourself if you've had unprotected sex lately!.

Also, stress may cause a delay as well!. Take it easy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

sometimes periods just come late :) my friend didnt have hers for months and they came later, usually its late when ur over weight but i dont know ask your mom about it maybe she knows

i dont think its because you are sickWww@Answer-Health@Com

if you started less than three years ago then youre probably still not settled or it may be if youve lost a lot of weight recentlyWww@Answer-Health@Com

If you haven't had sex you have nothing to worry about!.
Period's can be late/skipped when you've been ill/stressed etc!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Probably because of stress and being sick!.!. If your period does not return for 2 months go to a doctor! ?Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's very common to be late after you've been sick!. It happens to me every time I get the flu!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

could you possibly be pregnant!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

maybe if you still do not come on go and see your gp to find out if there is something wrong!. i know i am very iregularWww@Answer-Health@Com
