See a doctor.: The average age for menstruation to begin is 12.6 years old. There are many different factors that could cause delayed menstruation, and it would be a good idea to get a full evaluation by a physician. You might need a physical exam, blood test and possibly imaging studies. Good luck.

See a GYN: You need to see a gyn md for a "reproductive system" check. There could be many possible causes.
