Don't worry, you will get it. Some girls have to wait for their first period a little longer. Ask your doctor then you will sure that everything is OK.

No one can say exactly when you'll get your first menstrual period, but you will get it some time during puberty. Puberty is the time in your life when you begin to become an adult. This means a lot of growing and changing - both inside and out. Some girls start puberty at age 8, and others may start as late as age 14 or 15. Each girl goes at her own pace. So don't think you're weird if you start puberty a little earlier or a little later than your friends.
A good sign you're getting close to the time when your first period will arrive is if you notice a thick, white mucous discharge coming from your vagina. Usually, this happens for a number of months before you get your first period.

Dont worry about it. I was the first in my group of friends growing up to get boobs. I had the boobs and hair at 10, but my period didn't come until I was 14. Meanwhile, most of my friends had their periods at 11 or 12 but didn't get the boobs until they were 14.
Besides, periods suck, and once they start you have to deal with them for the next 30 to 35 years. Count yourself glad and just wait for it :)

dont worry, i felt exactly the same i got mine in the summer about a month after my 13th birthday, although we dont really talk about stuff like that my friends had theirs about 1 month before their thirteenth birthday and another when she was 12 and another got in the summer like me. Its most likely you will start before the summer but i was really worried cause it seemed like everybody had it but me, but in actual fact by the time your 13 only about 50-60% of people have it. I worked it out and it turned out i was pratically the same time as everyone else it was just cause i was one of the youngest in our year. I would carry around some pads and/or tampons though cause it sounds like you'll be starting soon. and dont listen to the people saying they hate it and that you shouldn't want it cause i still look forward to gettin mine and iv had it for 1/2 a year. the only downside is cramps :( Good luck everything will be fine!

Everybody is different when it comes to getting your period. It's normal to get your first period from age 8 to age 15. If you don't get it by the time you're 15 or so, see your doctor. Otherwise, just be patient and yours will come on its own.

Hah, enjoy your time without it >.< Nothing to look forward to, really. Puts you in a pissy mood and all....
But if you really care that much, as said above, there's really no way to tell for sure. Ask your mom or your sister if you have one when they started theirs- it will be around the same time.

So be happy. For now you dont' have to worry about it. You have all that they have but that one bad thing. It doesn't mean you're any less, if anything you're a little lucky. Don't worry you'll get it sometime, and if you dont' then well that means you'll never have children j/k it'll come.

There's no telling. It all matters about your age. I was the same way when I was younger. My best friend got it when she was 9. I got it when I was 14. It all matters. Just have patience, it'll come soon enough.
