i'm 14, turning 15 july 21st. i'm 100 lbs and i think im around 5'0 but i could be a little taller. i'm completely flat-chested and really upset about it. when i say flat-chested, i don't mean 32A bra. i mean there's nothing there at all, it's like i'm a 10 year old. i know i may be a little on the small side, but i'm almost 15. no one my age that i have ever met is flat-chested like me.
people say i could be a late bloomer, but i have hair in the places i should, so i know i've started. i don't have my period yet, though, and my doctor told me if i don't by the time i'm 15 they start to worry.
what should i do?

The doctor told me i would be getting my period soon BUT it has been a year and NO PERIOD so ..... just kinda play it by timming. You will get it when you get it. Thats what i have been told concidering i am in the same stage as you.

Unfortunately, there is no magical food to eat to make your boobs bigger. You shouldn't worry about taking growth hormones or the like, since you are far too young for that!
Your best bet is to talk to your mother or another female family member about when their breasts started to develop. Family members tends to develop similarly.
Don't worry- all girls are different. Some have been wearing a bra since they were 8 years old, some won't need one until well after their period starts. You aren't some kind of freak of nature ;) [ Erinn_the_bamf's advice column | Ask Erinn_the_bamf A Question ]
japm answered Tuesday June 23 2009, 9:22 pm: many people are different sizes at ages.
my friends, all fourteen at the moment, are 34A, 34D... and we're all the same age. my mother is a size C and she's forty and was a size A when she got married in her late 20s.
so don't worry - you *are* a late bloomer, but dont worry too much. my friend just got her period and shes about to turn 14, and my other friend got hers a few months before her 14th birthday (which was a few months ago).
actually, the same friend who just got her period a couple months ago, used to be super flatchested. i didn't see her for a summer, then she came back with boobs.

theres nothing really you can do only wait until they do start to grow.
remember everyone is different! and our bodies grow and devolop at different ages and times your completely normal I know it may seem frustrating just waiting for the to come along but they will eventually your doctor is right they should come along when you start your period.
my friend is 16 and shes only a 32A now she just started hers not so long ago she was the same as you =) but they are growing so relax and be paitient in the meantime,use padded gel bras to plump your chest up NEVER stuff your bra though it just looks ridiculous and its obvious.
if in time when you start your periods and you find your boobs arent as big as youd like them to be don't worry just try learn to accept yourself and your body for who you are everyone has things about their body they wish were smaller bigger or different in some way trust me =]
its about learning to love what youve got and work with it
hope I helped!
Much <3
Jess
