is it normal that a 15 years old girls don't have her period yet?
Jan 7, 2013

Dr. Karim Nawfal Obstetrics & Gynecology
An adolescent girl starts having her periods at an average age of 12 (it is called menarche)
If there is no periods by the age of 15 (primary amenorrhea) an examination and evaluation has to be done to rule out certain abnormalities. Another important information is the presence or absence of secondary sexual characteristics (breast development, armpit or pubic hair etc.)
