Kinda scared, and confused! Only serious answers please.?

Question

I'm 15 and havent gotten my period. I've shown all other signs of puberty. I know it could just be my weight, (103 pounds) but I would really like to know if something is wrong with me. Could masterbation be a reason I havent gotten it?

Answer 1

No need to worry yet. Some girls get it a bi later (16) than others. If you are really active, vegetarian or under weight... that can effect you. And masturbation has nothing to do with it. If it did, most girls wouldn't get a period ever!

If you are worried about it, talk to your doctor. If you still haven't gotten it by 16... also see your doctor.

Answer 2

I doubt masterbation has anything to do with it.

Don't worry, you'll get it soon enough.  Just enjoy the time you have to not deal with it.

Answer 3

You are still within normal age.  Some girls don't start their first period til they are 15 or 16 years.  Ask your mom when she started her first period because that can give an indication of when you will start your first period.

My mom started her first period at age 11 but I didn't start my first period til I was 13.

Answer 4

Everyones body is different. I believe its normal to not start all the way up to 17, maybe 18. I wouldnt be concerned for at least a couple more years.

Answer 5

Being 15 is still within the range of normal times for you to get your first period.

Masturbation should not affect when you get your period, but your level of physical activity could.  If you play intense sports that could be a reason for the delay, even though you are still within the normal range and shouldn't worry.  Seriously, you'll be complaining about it soon enough, don't be in a big rush to get it.

Answer 6

Answer 7

you have nothing to worry about. some women get their periods very early while others very late. not getting your period at 15 isnt rare

Answer 8

I have known 9 yr olds with a period, and some people starting at 18 years old, I wouldn't be worried.

Answer 9

dont worry hunny..it will happen, we are all different

masturbation has nothing to do with it..lol

Answer 10

Self-pleasuring has nothing to do with having your period.  In fact, it is recommended for easing cramps.  But then, you have to decide how you feel about that.  I was about 16, just a couple months from it, when my mom took me to the doctor.  He said to wait another month or so for it.  You may just be a "late bloomer."  If you have not begun the process by the age of 16, have your mom take you to an ob/gyn, who will be able to rule out any potential medical problems.  Relax about it, because when your periods do begin, they will come once a month for a looooooooong time> God bless.
