Very helpful tool :D
advice
I am 13 years old and I got my periods when I was 12 and half.I didnt tell anyone about my periods because of some personal reasons(I dont have any sibling and i am not close to my mother and my father is abroad and I am too shy to tell someone else).I hate sex and I dont have any boyfriend.I started doing skipping rope and running excessively at morning without taking breakfast(I didnt do exercise that much in my whole life) and I am sure that i have lose weight.
First, its very normal to have our periods late when you first start getting them. My periods would skip months at first and the doctor said it was normal for periods to be irregular. This continues to happen for years until finally it's more in sync. So, don't worry too much about it being late. Also, if you are underweight it definitely contributes. For example, serious female athletes (ex gymnasts) rarely get their periods because of how little fat they have. (see this link for more information http://www.livestrong.com/article/385269-at-what-body-fat-percent-do-you-start-losing-your-period/). I would record when you get your period each month and see if its a pattern. Some women have a longer cycle so they might get their period a bit delayed each time which is normal too. Keep track and if you notice a problem then you can always just call your pediatrician and they can tell you over the phone if its a problem or not.
