most ppl start between the age of 8 and 18 (most common ages are 12 -14)... maybe you are a late bloomer... if you dont get by the time you are 18 go a doctor...

You can ask your grandmother, mother or sisters, if you have sisters, when was it, they started their periods. Sometimes women follow their female relatives in certain health issues. You can also go talk to a free women's clinic, and you can use the phone and call the information centers on health issues. If you find everything else to be developing correctly when it comes to your own body, and you are only concerned over this issue, you may have nothing to be concerned over. But, if you want to hear more on this topic from a professional, you can seek out a free clinic or call the health information lines which are out there for the public.

Don't worried sweetie, not a big deal. If your really active then you may start later up to the age of 20. Don't be scared, think of it as a blessing.

Every woman starts her menses at different times. Would not worry about it until you are 20. If it has not begun then, I would consult a doctor.

Yes its normal, If you havent started by 18yr then you need to go to your gyn,, If you are stressed, excersie etc it will delay your period.
