A member asked:
Hi i'm 17 years old and a bit overweight and haven't had my period at all. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, not normal: It's considered abnormal for a young woman to have not started menstruating by the age of fifteen. I would recommend seeing a gyn doctor ; having some testing done to figure out what the cause is.
