Okay why haven't I started my period yet??? I am 13 I have had discharge for about a year now!!! I am worried because dishcharge is when you are ovulating!!! I am a B Cup. I am the only girl in my entire middle school that hasn't started. So I lie about it and tell people I have. I have had hair since I was in 4th grade!!! And I was a A Cup in 3rd grade!!! I don't want to go to a doctor. And I really want to start!!! Please Help!!!!
Thanx

Ok, first off...DON'T WORRY about it! God, girls are so stupid at that age! (no offense, I was the same way). I seriously doubt that all of the girls at your middle school have started they're period. I bet most of them feel the same way you do, that something must be wrong with them if they haven't started. There ISN'T. I don't see why there's peer pressure to have your period, when it SUCKS. Having congealed, smelly blood oozing from your vagina for twelve weeks a year for most of your life isn't really a fun time. Ignore those other girls. They're dumb.
Breast size is not a direct indicator of having your period. Neither is discharge. True, discharge generally means you're entering puberty, but that doesn't mean you'll have your period.
I didn't have my period until I was 15, even though I had hair, discharge, and boob since I was about 13. My mom had hers at 16, and my sister at 16. I wouldn't worry about it unless you pass 16 or 17 without having it.
Trust me, you don't want your period to start. I bet you've read "Are You There God, Its Me Margaret" didn't you? Take it from me: having your period isn't as exciting as it sounds, and just because you haven't started at 13 doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you. Having your period just means that now you can get pregnant and you're going to have to spend a lot of money every month for tampons or pads.
Don't let the other girls get to you. I seriously seriously doubt they've all had it by now. I bet if you actually opened up your mouth, other girls would also admit they hadn't actually had theirs. It doesn't mean you're "immature" or anything, since obviously you show other signs of growing up. If just means you haven't had your period yet. That's all.

don't worry. the fact that your breasts are developing is an excellent sign. when I was 13, i had hair and discharge. that is it. in fact i never bled until i was 21 and the doctor put me on hormones to induce it. i was a skinny kid, that was the reason, or so they told me. and, i am still a skinny woman. but now i'm 31 and things down there are pretty normal. so don't worry, it'll happen when it happens.

hey im just like you (im 13 too)
i got hair REALLY early like in 3 or 4th grade and had the same thing and cramps and i got my period just a month ago so it felt like it was coming soon for like EVER! so then i came after awhile so you just have to wate! i know it sucks! but its not much of a big deal so ask your mom when she got her first and then you should get it around that time too. and go to these site there good to see before you get it so you know about it!

Be patient - it'll come when it's ready. Stressing about it actually makes it stutter.
You don't want a period either, believe me - they are hard work.

I started at 14. You are ok. Be happy you are still free of it longer then other people but rest assured, it is coming. =)
