you shouldnt contact a docer till your about 16. if you dotn get around your 16th year there sould be a problem. Also ask your mom and grandmother when they had theirs ill give you an example if your mother had hers at 12 and your gradnmother had hers at 14 then you should have it around 13. mabey your mom and grandmom had theirs late aswell

 Dont worry sweety, if you dont have your period when you are already in 20 above then i think you can start worrying, but for now, you can only enjoy your self and relax..

He went from my little baby bro, to holy cow "a man" seemingly over night :) Some people bloom later than others and some sooner than others - i know someone who started their period at 6 and another girl who started her period at 20 - your body will do it when its ready :)

 Nothing. It's normal. Some girls start as young as 8 or 9. Others start much later at about 16. So there's nothing wrong. If you haven't had your first period by the time you're about 16 then check it out with your doctor. But there's nothing to worry about at the moment.

First of all take a deep breath and relax! It is very normal for people to get their period at different times! some as late as 17! it depends on many differnt things including weight and hormones!They will kick in soon enough so try not to worry..:)

 Wait. If it doesn't come by the age of 17/18, then ask a doctor if she/he thinks something may be wrong.
