Period
Okay I'm 15 years old. I've had my period since I was 13. It has ALWAYS been regular, I would get it every month around the 17th. But this past March I stopped getting my period. I AM NOT SEXUALLY ACTIVE at all. Im a little concerned because I saw on Tyra last night that this girl stopped getting her period for a couple monthes & it turned out she had a brain tumor? So if you ever had this happen to you.. or if you have any advice please let me know. Thanks so much!

There are other factors for not getting your period, besides brain tumours!
Are you stressed? Have you changed your diet in any way? Lost/gained weight? Changed your exercise regime?
It's common for periods to be irregular or stop sometimes within the first few years of having it.
Make an appointment with your doc and explain your situation.
It will put your mind at ease and help pinpoint exactly why yours has changed.

DONT WORRY! same thing happened to me..for 3 or 4 months! i did go on the birth control pill though, only for a month so i would be sure not to have my period on a vacation i was going on. after that month i went off of it. i had my period the following month, and then after that i didnt have it for about 4 months. my doctor and mother who worked at a hospital said not to worry. although i was on the pill, i think your situation might just be the same as mine. if its only been around a month do not worry at all! periods can be wayyyy off sometimes. especially if you've become more physically active or changed a diet or something. if it continues for much longer and you are worried, then definitely call a doctor. but for now, continue what you normally do and dont think about it, and be thankful not to have one right now. =]

Consult your doctor.
It may not be anything serious because your body is still changing and adjusting, so even though you've been regular your body can't always work perfectly. But just to be on the safe side.
