As one of the other columnists pointed out, if you've had sex fairly recently (last few months or so, just to be safe), then you could be pregnant. Yes, it is possible at your age. In this case, you should take a pregnancy test.
If you haven't had sex, then there are two possibilities--either something is wrong with you, or you're going through the normal menstrual irregularities that kids your age often have.
There are a few problems you could have. One of them could be being underweight. Are you "skinny?" If your body fat level falls below somewhere between 18 and 20%, your menstrual cycles might shut down. If this is the case, you need to gain weight... If you train very hard at athletics (VERY hard. I don't just mean play basketball or softball, I mean like Olympic level training), that can also disrupt your cycle. In either of these cases you should talk to your doctor about it, not on an emergency basis, but just to sort out what you should do next.
There are more serious problems that can happen, but they're rare at our age. If you're concerned about them, or you have other symptoms besides the absence of your period, you might want to go to a gynecologist for a basic check-up. They'll check for major problems and it'll act as a good "baseline" for the future, when you'll have to go to the gynecologist regularly. If nothing else, it'll put your mind at ease...
However, in all likelihood, nothing is wrong. At all.
Teenage cycles tend to be irregular. It's most noticable when you first start, but the weird schedules can last for years afterward. Everyone skips every now and then, but especially at your age. At thirteen, I wouldn't even worry about it. Just relax.

Your period is irregular, that is why you haven't had your period for a while. Once you get your first period, then your period is going to be irregular for the next few years, meaning you don't know when it will come and how long it will last. Don't worry, if you stress and worry a lot and if you are athletic, this all causes your period to be irregular.
