    Periods can be earlier or late or totally miss a month. All sorts of things can cause a missed or late period. If you aren't sexually active, why the worry? If you miss two more (and don't get this one), it'll be time to see a doctor.

    At 16 your body is still adjusting to having your period. Being late, or early, or even missing a period altogether, is normal at this age.

    If you're not sexually active there's really no reason to worry. If you are concerned, see a doctor. But really, 8 days late is nothing.

    And stress can cause your period to be delayed. If you have not had sexual intercourse, then you are not pregnant. So it could simply be stress or growing pains. But if you miss a period go to the doctor.
