It's OK to be 14 and not have your period yet. I know it feels like everyone else has gotten it, but some girls don't get it until they're 16 or so, so don't worry! Every woman's body has it's own calendar, and it will start at the right time for you.
As for the extra skin, it sounds like one of your labia are longer than the other. Labia are little ruffles of skin that surround your vagina. One set is larger, and on the outside, the other tends to be smaller, and is on the inside, so the layers go: larger (major) Labia, smaller (minor) Labia, vagina. Sometimes the left side or the right side is a little bigger than the other, but that's fairly common, and it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you.
You should definitely check out a book titled "Our Bodies, Ourselves". It's in libraries and bookstores, and it's about all aspects of women's bodies. I guarantee the more you know the less worried you'll be!

I've seen a lot of vag throughout the years and every one looks different. Don't worry about your hanging lips. Some have innies and some have outies, just like a belly button.
As for your period, nope - plenty of girls start late. Ask your doctor if you're concerned. You should have at least been to a gyno by now.

Different people gets their period at different times. I got mine at 15. You will be fine. As for the extra skin... it's fine. That is the way you are built:) Do not panic you ar perfectly normal. Good luck:)

No, there is nothing wrong with you. Some girls just start late. Do talk to your mother and your pediatrician just to be sure that there's nothing wrong with you. As for extra skin, again, talk to your pediatrician, and you will get straight answers. Good luck!
