I was helping my uncle move and it was taking like...forever. Then I said I was going to go to the bathroom. I did my business, looked down, and saw that there was blood. I didn't expect it. But at least I wasn't at school. And some girls don't have their period until they are 16. If you are older than that and still haven't had your period, you should see a doctor. Just don't wear light colors to school, because you never know. [ juliet132132's advice column | Ask juliet132132 A Question ]
TheWallflower answered Thursday April 19 2007, 12:41 am: Girls who are shorter weigh less because they possess less mass. You would expect someone 6'5 to be heavier than someone 5'5. The same applies to girls, except girls who weight less aren't shorter, it's girls who are shorter weigh less.
You're also underweight. You're also physically pushing yourself because you're on track. Having a period means you are ready to have a baby. If you weigh 97 lbs, you are not ready to have a baby. But not having your period isn't necessarily a bad thing. But if you really want it, gain a little more weight [ TheWallflower's advice column | Ask TheWallflower A Question ]
MW8305 answered Wednesday April 18 2007, 11:45 pm: Yes... Because you exert yourself physically on a regular basis; that could be why you haven't started your period yet. This is fairly normal and happens frequently.
If it makes you feel any better... I think my body had fully matured by the age of ten. I was five foot and two inches tall (the same height I am now) 110 pounds (the same weight) and had lost my baby fat, gained breasts and a set of hips. Yet I didn't start my period until two years later... Another year passed before I had my period again. (Again, also very normal.)
No one can tell you for sure what's going on, simply because everyones body is different. If you're really disturbed, you could try asking a doctor... That would be the best educated guess. I think it's probably because you're athletic... But it sounds like you could start soon if you're all ready experiencing the symptoms. [ MW8305's advice column | Ask MW8305 A Question ]
