why have i not got my period??

Posted by francesca walters

Hi everyone, so i’m getting pretty worried. My breasts started developing (slowly!) at 12 or 13, i have already grown body hair, i have went through growth spurts, i have been getting discharge since i was 12 and yet i am almost 16 and have still not gotten my period. I constantly stress about this! I don’t know if it’s normal or not. Can someone help please?

Hi Francesca!

First periods can be a bit of a waiting game, but you just gotta trust that your body knows best!

It does sounds like you’ve been experiencing some pre-period symptoms so just be on the look out for the final signs which will tell you that your period is super close. These signs include: feelings of irritability, some cramping and brownish discharge.

If this is causing you stress, I recommend booking in an appointment with your GP for a friendly chat!
