Hi, I would definitely recommend going to see a doctor. There may or may not be something wrong, but you could find out for sure, by doing that.

Periods are irregular, but my only concern is that you've went so long without it. So the best advice I can give you is to see a doctor. I'm sure he/she can help you, and everything will be okay. :)

I have heard about this. It's nothing not normal, but it would be best to talk to your doctor about it, and he'll help you out. But some reasons for having irregular periods include illness, rapid weight change, or stress and can also make things more unpredictable because the part of the brain that regulates periods is influenced by stuff like this. Some girls always have irregular periods; others get theirs every 28 days like clockwork. Many are regular most of the time, but occasionally skip a period or get an extra period during times of pressure or stress. In fact, you may notice that when you go on a trip or have a major change in your schedule your period is late. Some teens may develop irregular periods - or stop having periods altogether - as a result of a hormone imbalance. Disorders of the thyroid gland can cause menstrual irregularities if the levels of thyroid hormone in the blood become too low or too high. Some women have irregular periods because their bodies produce too much androgen, which is a hormone that causes increased muscle mass, facial hair, and deepening of the voice in males and the development of pubic hair and increased height in girls. High amounts of androgen can also cause hair growth on the face, chin, chest, and abdomen, and is sometimes associated with excessive weight gain.

Nothing at all. Most periods don't follow a set schedule. If you still haven't gotten a consistent period by your 18th birthday, I would go to a doctor... just to see what the deal is. But you have nothing to worry about!
