No period : Time is the best tool there. If still no bleeding, contact your primary care physician and check a pregnancy test if pregnancy could be an option.

Yes: Typically you don't, but sometimes you will cramp but not actually have a cycle. The cycle may be delayed, or the cramping is coming from the bowels or bladder.

Cramps may be normal: Some women experience uterine cramping during their cycles. It is the body's response to the changing level of hormones. It can be normal, but if your cramping is particularly painful, birth control can help. See your doctor to determine what is right for you.
