leori	just wait! it'll come. i know some 15 year olds that havn't even gotten theirs yet. just wait and it'll come! haha :P Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sandy	I didn't start mine until I was almost 14. Everyone is different, I'm sure you are fine. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ILOVELUCYFAN	Don't worry my aunt was 17 before she started her period. Often when you are very active delays your cycle from starting. People with less body fat seem to start later, and that is okay. You will see once you start that you probably would not mind waiting even longer, there are cramps, headaches, bloating, not to mention all the beautiful clothes we stain when we have heavy flow. Right now you have so many hormones that are running through your body to prepare you for adulthood. Relax and enjoy those teenage years, they go by so fast! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

alexia	everyone starts at different times. some start at 9 years old some start later like 14. I got mine at 13 on halloween. so it could come later this year. Being active could be part of the reason why you don't have it. but your body will be ready when it feels its ready. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

New York	Yeah every woman is different when she gets her period. Since you are an athlete, that may contribute to the reason it hasn't come yet. My mother's friend got her period after college! [I wish that happened to me] You should excited to get your period? If you are, just a slight warning, don't be. It's a pain. literally. I'd say however you may get your period this year or next. Based on the average age a woman gets her period. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

arviy2k	That is left to your body to answer. Nobody can predict when a girl gets her first period. It only happens when the body is ready. Your playing tennis has nothing to do with it. Usually girls get their first period when they are 14-16 years of age, but i've known some girls who got their first period even at 19 years.. So dont worry Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dark_phoenix	I knew people who didn't get their periods until age 14 or even 15. It happens. Being athletic and active can have an effect. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you, although if you don't get it within 1 or 2 more years, you should probably talk to a doctor about it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

starfunkels	Don't rush it babe, periods suck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lapyramid	YES!! Though I began my menstrual cycle when I was 11. It would often stop for periods of 3-6 months because I was involved in gymnastics and cheerleading. I know that you want to experience the novelty of it and growing up, but trust me this is a time of your life to enjoy. There are reasons that it is called the curse, lol. Enjoy your freedom while you have it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Yes / No

♦Hollywood's Finest♦	Being very active and athletic can definitely cause your period to begin later. However, I don't really know the reason why. I was a chubby kid and I started my period at 11, but my sister is very slim and athletic (plays basketball, softball, and runs track) and she didn't start until she was 16. Experts generally concur that your menstrual cycle will start within 2 years of ending your growth spurt and starting to develop breasts. For example, if you grew alot the year before last, but your height hasn't changed that much in the past year, then it can happen anytime. Try not to impatient ... it will be here before you know it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Marie Q	theres no rush to this.normal people get their period between 9years old to 17years old.The younger you get it,the chances of getting cancer,early menopause is higher.So thank god you didn't get it at a younger age.Wait,it will come to you and you will dread it every time it comes Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

chitterchatter1818	this is perfectly normal some girls dont get theirs until they're 16 if you want to know how long till you get it ask your doctor, he/she should be able to give you a prediction Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

*sweetiepie**	I'm 13 and I just got my period, its ok! My b-day is July 1 and I got mine on Halloween 2006! The only way their could be anything wrong is if it dosnt come when your 15-17. then their is a problem. your ok! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lucky_sweet_cute	It is common for girls with less body fat percentage to get their periods later. I bet if you stopped playing tennis for a few months, it would start. But trust me, you're not missing anything, lol. I would count my blessings if I were you. If you stop tennis for a while and still dont get it I would see a gyno, but unless you're really really paranoid, or have a reason to think it might be some other medical problem, I wouldnt worry about it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Lauren	That could be it, as well as being to thin, or you just aren't ready yet. Some people don't even get it until they are 18. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

inkinheaven	Don't fret. It will come sooner than you think. I was almost 15 when I had my first period. I was active as well but that isn't whaat prolonged it. It was just the way it worked out hormonally. You will get there. Your body is maturing at the rate that it was intended. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

notmyrealname	you seem like you are anxious for it to start. why is that? your life is better without it. if i were you, i'd be hoping it didn't start for a couple of more years, at least. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

athena9980	i wouldn't worry about it, i was a figure skater when i got mine at 14-15 and i was skating every day. the only time you won't get your period is if you starve yourself, or if something is serisouly wrong with your body, but your young, youll get it eventually :) be happy in the fact that you don't have to worry about tampons or pads or if you have anything when it decides to show up a week early!!!! or if you get it when your wearing white pants!!!!! man i can't wait until menopause...lol Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

*pandora*	I'm 13 too, and I got mine just recently. Believe me, it is NOT something you should look forward to. Be happy while you don't have it. If that's not enough for you, then just be patient. It'll come before you know it. Good luck. ;-) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

kewte_kewpie	That's ok! I didn't get mine until I was 14 1/2. It will come in due time. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
