A member asked:

What to do if my daughter has not started her period yet? should i take her to get a physical? or not.

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

How old?: Depends on her age and stage of puberty. If you're really 23 years old your daughter should be nowhere near having a period.

Dr Samuel and another doctor agreed

Other signs: The average girl will have her first menses between 2 and 3 years after her breast buds emerge.If not, she should see a pediatric endocrinologist.
