Answer:
If your way underweight you won't get your period at all. If your an athlete you'll notice that you will get it later. Otherwise it depends on genes and your diet. Preservatives that the put on a lot of the food these days leads to getting it earlier. I wouldn't worry too much. It will start when your body is ready. I didn't get my first period till I was almost 15 and that is due to my genetics, none of the women in my family got it early, and that I eat mostly food from the garden. If your worried go in to see an ob/gyn and they will make sure nothing is wrong.
I got mine when i was 15
no weight or height doesnt have nething to do with ur period. dont worry ur time will come when u have to put up with that monthy visit. trsut me, ur lucky u dont have ur rag. it SUCKS! when i was 12 i used to wish i had mines. in sept when i was 13 i got it and i started crying. im 17 and i wish GOD never invented my monthly visitor!
u should start soon, and weight may affect it, but God is in control, if u dont start but 16, see a doctor,and carry around extra pads in case of an emergency!!
Hugs!!
There really isn't a "normal" age. I've heard of girls starting at 11 years old and others 13 or more. Rare cases could start as early as 9 and others might not until 18 or older. If you're in the majority, you should be starting soon but it can vary so much it wouldn't be possible to give a definite answer.
I just got mine a few months ago. I am 12. I am sick of it already!!
There was a study done in Great Britten that found that it wasn't age that determined when you get your period, it is weight. The study found that periods start happening at 110 lbs. From what I've seen in the schools I've worked in, and the girls in my family, I agree. My opinion is that you should start carrying supplies when you get to be somewhere between 105 lbs. and 108 lbs. just so you are prepared and used to having them with you. Weight is the reason so many girls are getting it at an earlier age. One of my cousins got her's at 10 or 11, I didn't get mine until I was 15. I have always been very thin and lightly built, and she is more muscular and has a heavier bone structure.
Everyone is different...don't sweat it. Enjoy a period free life as long as possible.
It happens when it happens thier no age to it, But you are in the normal range.And no wieght or height don't effect it all. But a lot of times it starts when your younger as of ages 10 , 11 , 12 or even 13. Hope this helps you a lot. Good Luck !!
some start there period from age 10 to 16 do not worried about when your period will start think it this way your saving a lot of by not buying any pads
im 14 and 5'1 and 87 pounds and i dont have my period either, and the 100 pounds thing is not true, my best friend was only 90 pounds when she got hers last year
