Missing my period 3 months in a row and i know i am not pregnant.
Question Posted Monday June 6 2011, 4:25 pm
I am 14 years old. I know for a fact i am not pregnant because i have never had sex before. I have missed my period the last 3 months. The longest ive ever missed it was 2 months. I have been stressed out latley and i do get nervouse when it does not come around. Could it be that i will never get it again and somethings wrong with me? i would rather not go to the doctor, i am very shy and do not like to talk about these things. Also the last time i got my period was the first time i used a tampon. Someone please help.
As for using birth control to regulate your periods, that is a good idea, but I wouldn't tell anyone at your age. The immature boys in your hood and at your school are going to make all kinds of crazy assumptions. Birth control isn't shameful at all, but we have to live in the real world here. Americans are really screwed up about sex thanks to the religious nuts.
Also, just remember that you have to use it AS INSTRUCTED in order for them to be effective in preventing pregnancy. Your safest bet is to use both condoms and the pill when you have sex a few years down the line since the condoms also reduce the likelihood of getting STD's (but condoms will not prevent herpes).

I had PMS symptoms for a year before my period then i waited like 3 months between each one in the first year. Your body has to get used to it and you body is just developing. IF you are stressing out because you didn't get your period, don't. You know you're not pregnant so no sweat there. I would definitely go to a doctor if you don't get it in another month or so. There could be a problem which you can't prevent or really do anything about.
Bright side. =] Right now, think how lucky you are to not have it. I absolutely hate my period and getting it. Treasure your time without it.
Putting a tampon in has nothing to do with not getting you period. Like, I said don't sweat it but do make a doctors appointment if you don't get it in another month. [ AngelKMC65's advice column | Ask AngelKMC65 A Question ]

The pill makes your periods more regular. It can be common in some people to just be irregular. It can make your chances at wanting to become pregnant a little harder because you dont know when your going to ovuate but you are 14 and don't need to be owrry about that.

and since youre not sexualy active, then yeah, youre fine.
stress and nervousness and all of those emotions, plsu your hormones can quicken or delay your period, sometimes for days, weeks, or even months at a time.
it will come, dont worry.
using a tampon has nothing to do with you not getting your period, so dont worry about that either. its just irregular. no worries.
but if you dont get it in the next few months, go see a doctor and tell your mom so you can get checked out. but right now, try not to think about it :] youre fine.
good luck ! hope i helped and if you need anything else feel free to inbox me, xxo. [ itdependsonyoux3's advice column | Ask itdependsonyoux3 A Question ]
