    When will I get my period?
    I am 14 and still haven't gotten my period yet. When wiill it happen? Is it posible that it won't happen, and if it doest what will I do? I am kind of scared that I will never get it and that there is nothing I can do about it. I even have to lie to all of my friends at school because I am ashamed thet I am the only one who hasn't gotten there period yet. My mom got hers when she was in 6th grade and I am in 8th I hope I get it and my children will ask me the same questions then I will be able to answer them with a good answer and they won't have to go through the worry that I went thruogh.:(

    Don't worry, you will get yours. While you are concerned about not getting it, when you do you will wish you never did.

    Let me ask you this... Do you weigh less than 100 pounds? Many girls, for reasons unknown, don't start until they are around 100 pounds.

    Another thing, you can tell your friends, is that girls who tend to get theirs later, tend to have less problems, and a lesser chance of certain female cancers. So, dear, you are luckier than all of your friends.

    I was in the same situation you are in, some people don't get it until there 15 mabey 16, but every girl gets it. Some just get it later. And if you are concerned, ask your mom to take you to the OBGYN. But really don't be scared you'll get it sooner or later.

    That is normal. I'm 14 too & a friend of mine still haven't started her period. So don't worry. That's so normal. You WILL get it. I got mine when I was in the end of 7th grade. My mom got hers when she was in 5th grade if I'm not mistaken.
