Nothing at all.
Everyone develops differently
Its a pain anyway...enjoy not having it while you can!!

Oh sweet pea- i am sure nothing is wrong- every womans body works and runs differently. i am sure your momma bosy workes different then mher mommas and so on. sports,exercise,illness,stress,diet, all those can affect your body. You homornes are different then sisters- she may have just had more to start hers on a little sooner. If you are really that concerned- ask your mom/dad and maybe they can take you to a doc to talk to. or call your peditrician and speak to them. You are absolutley 100 fine and i did the same thing except i didnt get a peiod until 18 and i have 2 beautiful sons and i am ok in my life. we all do things when the time is right and meant to be for us as individuals. Enjoy your womanhood in all the ways it comes about and in the timely manner that it does or doesn't. I know it's hard for you to-- i remember as well- but it all comes around soon enough. You sound like a very smart young lady- research this question under "female repruction system, female menstruation cyle,, etc" that may give you some more information.

Its not a big deal, don't worry about it. Some girls start as early as 9 or 10, others don't start until their 17 or 18. Enjoy this time now, because once you start, its definitly no fun!! Believe me, I started when I was 13 and now I am 40 and would give anything to not have a period anymore! Good Luck!

Every girl is different. However if you are feeling any kind of abdominal pain and you haven't had your period, you should get yourself checked by a doctor. When I was 14 I hadn't gotten my period yet but every month I would get really bad pains in my stomach for about a year. I had gone to several doctors and noone knew what was wrong with me. Finally this one doctor checked me and said that I had started my period a long time ago but it wasn't coming out because my hymen was still in tact and it was holding everything in. Well I had to get a hymenectomy and when I was operated I lost more than 3 pints of blood that my body was holding on to. So if you have any kind of pain but no period then you should get yourself checked out! More than likely though you'll start naturally. Everyone is different.

There is nothing wrong with you. Some girls just start earlier than others and you are actually blessed that you haven't started yet. It will come soon, I am sure. After it has come, you may understand what I'm about to say a whole lot better, but count your lucky stars that you don't have periods yet. It indeed is a blessing not to, at any age.

There is nothing wrong with you. I am 13 also yet I have gotten it but I know many girls that dont have and r older than you. This just means that your sister is developing faster than you that all and you will get it somday just wait. And anyway having your period isnt that fun it hurts and it makes you really tired and it comes with the chanse that you might get in a situation that you can get embarassed so you should be glad that you dont have it. Trust me.

Well I am 24 and I started mine when I was 10. Becoming that mature before all of my friends was kind of wierd but it was okay once I got used to it and comfortable with my new body. Starting late is normal though, one of my friends didn't start until we were 18, it just depends on the person. Don't be in a rush, it will happen.

You are fine. Be happy you don't have to deal with a period..ugh..They are not fun..Everyone is different. I started at 11 when my older sister didn't start till they were 14, 15. So I got my period before 1 of my sisters(and I am the youngest). So nothing is nothing is wrong with you, you will get it soon probably.

They say you can start any where from 11 to 18 years old... not to worry you but my sister turned 16 and still didn't start so I told her if she was that worried got see a doctor. She found out she had P.C.O.S. She'll have to be on meds just to have one. I'm sure that's not the case with you but if you turn 16 and still haven't started go see your doctor. It's more likely nothing... 13 is still young though enjoy it while you can!

There is nothing wrong with you. All girls develop differently. Your sister was 12 when she got hers and i was 11 when i got mine. I have friends that didn;t get theirs until high school. So take a deep breath, relax and take it easy. You are developing normally and u will get it in time.....take it from me, i have had my period now for 16 yrs and i can;t wait to get rid of it....in a way consider your self lucky.

NOTHING is wrong with you. Everyone is different. I started at 13, my sister at 9, and my friend at 15. Trust me when I say, "you are not missing anything great". It will come when the time is right. Don't worry about it, you are perfectly NORMAL.
