I am 15 years old and still haven't gotten my period :O! I have pretty much full grown breasts, a face full of pimples (someone help me about that too I'm trying different oils and washes), and body hair! All of my friends got their periods in 5th or 6th grade! I know periods suck and all, but I'm so anxious! Is there any way to get my period like super fast?
Please help!

You should be getting it soon, as you have the other characteristics of puberty. If you didn't have those, I would have advised you to see your regular doctor, who probably would have referred you to an endocrinologist.
Hi again! Please ask your mom to take you to the doctor just to get you checked out. Periods start anywhere from age 9 to 18, but all of my friends who have girls have said they took their girls to the doc just to check if it didn't happen by 15 just for everyone's peace of mind. Everyone of them was just fine and the doctor told them the are right on time for THEIR metabolism.
I remember wanting it to start too and I can tell you, that was one wish I regretted....but that said, it is a important milestone.
Take it easy on yourself. When you are at the MD you can talk to the doc about ways to treat the acne too. It sounds like old wives tales, but it worked for me, to cut out chocolate, caffeine, soda, and fats. Keep your skin clean and dry also.
Sending up lots of good wishes your way!!! Post back with an update!!!
Honey , don't worry, I didn't start until I was almost 16.
Periods aren't any fun.
