Don't worry! Most likely your body just isn't ready for you to have a period. Your period will most likely come in maybe about 6 months, or less (thats what happened to me *shrug* just estimating.) But if you really think somethings wrong, i suggest talking to an adult Teacher, Parent, older sibling, older sibling of a friend, or a friend.
Hope that helps :)

Just don't be afraid... you're probably fine! There is probably nothing seriously wrong with you, but if you have medical symptoms you should see a doctor. We're glad you wrote and want to help, but no one on the internet can give medical advice. It's common for young teenage girls to have irregular cycles, but it needs to be checked out to be on the safe side, so they can fix what's causing this. I have read that sometimes endometriosis causes missed or irregular periods... but don't worry! I'm not saying you have it and it's easy to fix if caught early. If it gets advanced it can be dangerous but they can fix it and treat it easily, you're young besides.
You're probably fine, but go to the doctor to be on the safe side. Good luck!

i am not an expert in this but i think it didn't come because you're under pressure or you're not eating very well you know mal nutrition can do it and if none of those are happening to you then you should tell your mom or an older sister cause it might be serious (i hope it's not)...so you need more time to see if it comes or not
ps: there is nothing serious as long as you're virgin

please dont be worried, you haven't had sex so you cant be pregnant and at your age the dont always come every month but if you find it has maybe been 2 months then I would suggest going to the doctor to see what they say.
when i was your age i would only have a 4 day period every six weeks roughly but as you get older your body gets a regular cycle.

If u miss say two in a row you could have a chat to your doc. But id say its just your hormones trying to figure out what they're doing. Good luck
