If you have not yet told your mother,maybe its time.
She can take you to the doctor and get a health check.

Talking to your mother, as red suggested, is best. And she can help you get a dr's appointment to make sure everything is OK

I can't talk to my mom really because I am in France.. So I was just wondering if this is really strange or can I just ignore it until I return to Canada?

There is but if I go to a doctor I have to pay for it.. and I am in France till the summer.. I was just wondering if it was because I moved that I am not getting my period

No, the stress of moving might cause your cycle to go a little off for a month or so. But not getting your period for 3 months when you've had it for a few years is a concern. You need to go to the dr's and make sure it's nothing serious. There's so many things that can cause your period to stop, some of them are nothing much while others are more serious conditions. And only a dr will be able to help you determine which it is for you.

Hi
... I also started to get my period at about 13.. and had irregular periods through out the whole time. I am now 23. I have not had my period now for 3 months.. I had an under active thyroid at about 16..
If you go to the doctor ask them to test for your thyroid levels...
Reason being is that if you have an overactive thyroid you can have more testosterone levels in your body.
So it will effect your period.
As well I was told by a specialist I had seen that being on birth-control can help to regulate your periods... ( I am allergic and can not try that) , so maybe ask about that as well while you are at the doctors..
I know you are not sexually active... but you do have your period now. And if anything was to happen.. then you would be prepared before hand. And it could help you to regulate your periods.
But in my case... I have a normal thyroid level now. There is no reason for me to not get my period for 3 months.. The doctor has no idea why... but I am continuing tests to figure out why. It is good to deal with it now. Because it can effect your insides, make you not able to have children in the future. Which is also my case... and undetermined why, But they know that it has something to do with not having your period regularly and how your reproduction parts work.
