Chill. It's normal. Just have pads or tampons ready at all times.

You are going to be irregular for a long time. It's nothing to worry about until you start becoming sexually active. Then I would look into getting on birthcontrol and protect yoruself with condoms. The older you become the more regular you will become. Sometimes, you may never be regular though. In my case it took birthcontrol to make my periods consistant. I would not get one for two months and then when I did, I couldn't even go to work the pain was so bad.
Good luck!

The thing about having a normal period is that you really never have a NORMAL period. Alot of different things can cause your period to not be normal. Diet, stress, and exercise are just a few things that can make your period irregular. A women who is overwhelming herself of exercise can have an abnormal period because adipose tissue is going thru 'a change' and turning into muscle tissue..Thats one way to cause an abnormal period. See a doctor though..

It is normal when you first get your period and all through your teen years for your period to be irregular, but if you skip more than 3 months, I would check with a doctor. It is good that you are not sexually active, so you can rule out STDs and pregnancy.

If your not sexually active then your not pregnant of course. But if you just started your period this year, your body is trying to regulate itself. When i first started. I had a period for 7 days. and the next month i had it for 12 days. of course over the years it stayed between 12 and 19 day periods so i had to get on birth control to control my cycles.

It's very normal. Your body is just getting used to all the hormonal changes it's going through. Stress and exercise can effect your period, too. If you keep skipping, or your periods become irregular, see your gyno. Otherwise don't worry.

It is okay thata happens to everybody. Especially within the first year. Just be sure to have pads and tampons wherever you are since you never know. But if you have lost weight or had some change in your life recently that may have caused it.

You shouldn't worry about it, its normal for you to skip around until your body gets regulated. Try to eat right and stay health and you will be fine. oh yeah sometimes when you are under a bunch of stress you can skip a period so just chill you'll be fine.

It's normal....
Sometimes periods can be confusing and maybe at times a little unexpected but as long as your covered and prepared you have nothing to worry about.

It is normal to have scant periods when you're young. If you're not having sex, I wouldn't be too worried about it. If you need more answers, contact a gynecologist. It takes a while for your body to regulate itself.
