I'm 15 (almost 16) and have not gotten my period yet. I have size 10 1/2 feet though! Is this bad?

Question

I am about 5'7 so does that mean I will be really tall?

Answer 1

ya may be a estrogen problem.  

Answer 2

no its not bad actually the oldest you can get your period no matter what anybody says is 18

Answer 3

If you are healthy and just not started your periods, then you may be what's called a "late bloomer", a girl that simply matures more slowly.  If you have a family doctor, schedule an appointment with them for your concern. Not sure how much this matters, but girls from hotter areas tend to start at a younger age.  I started at age 10.  I was born in Texas.  My own older daughter, started at age 16.  She was born in Oregon.  Anyway, talk to a healthcare person.  As far as big feet go?  Again, I'll tell you, health means quite a bit.  Yeah, it may limit what you consider "stylish" footwear, for it's not cheap to find larger sizes that are trendy.  Treasure the good and don't worry so much over things that are just fine!  Take care.  

Answer 4

yeah. that is not normal.

Answer 5

Your fine some girls/women don't get their periods until 18 or 19 Just be greatful for this time w/o it ~ having your period is not as fun as you think it will be. If your concerned then you can go to the doctor, my sister dis at age 15 ~ they put her on the pill & she started after like 2 months.

Answer 6

Answer 7

Answer 8

That is strange. I would talk to a doctor.

Answer 9

Go to a doctor!

Answer 10

You're still within the normal period starting range. Don't worry. I don't think your foot size is related. If you don't eat that can delay it (like anorexia/crazy exercise). If you don't get it during this year maybe see a gyno. You should be ok.  

Answer 11

Periods range in all girls. My cousin hadn't gotten hers until she was 24, not to put you down though. Your feet size doesn't matter. I heard Kate Winslet at only 5'6" has size 11 feet :)

Answer 12

I read in Seventeen Magazine that it's not normal. I would suggest talking to your doctor.

Answer 13

Every one is different. I started when I was 13 my sister was 16. Talk to your mom or doctor if you are really concerned. As for the feet, sorry about that as well.

Answer 14

it usually gets triggered by passing the 100lbs mark or if you've reached a certain amount of body fat.  i would talk to your doctor, but i dont' think it's anything to freak out about.  i think one of my friends got theirs sophomore year of highschool!

Answer 15

Don't worry, my friend was 16 when she had hers.  You may be a late developer.  Just wait or ask a doctor.

Answer 16

its normal

Answer 17

i dont know what to tell you. but talk with your doc.

Answer 18

Maybe you're a guy.

Answer 19

No every body starts theirs at diffrent time and it does not matter how big your feet is.Do you have discharge?Pubic hair?

Answer 20

No, it's lucky.  Girls start at different ages.  My mom was 17 when she started, I was only 11.  If you're concerned, talk to your doctor, but you're still in a normal range for physical maturity to occur.

Don't rush it! Enjoy not having your period yet.
