Well, nice to know from all of your reading that this lovely PCOS is why I was so late with my period. I've always wondered - my friends thought it was so weird that I didn't have my period, and I started in the 8th grade (Easter of all things - what's up with the holidays???). Mine was very heavy and tampons were a must in order to move on with life in a normal manner.

Technically 9, it was a 2 or 3 weeks before my 10th birthday. I was in 4th grade and I had no clue what was going on. I remember I was playing on the jungle gym with a friend and I thought the stains on my white shorts were from the rust off the bars. Man was I waaaay off!
They were very heavy to start, but I only ever got them twice a year at the most, up until I was 19 and finally convinced my mom that they were not stabling out, the pains were getting worse and I needed to see a doctor.

I was only 7 had to have an op to seperate adhesions at the age of 8. My parents thought something sinister had happened me with a man, as were asking me strange questions.
I didn't have regular periods as in they stopped, came back when I was 9, then stopped back again at 11 got awful pain at that age, then nothing until I was 14. I was regular for a few yrs, then became irregular. I have PCOS and endometriosis. Started having awful period pain from about 1995, was diagnosed 5 yrs later.
Think I was born with PCOS as always had more hair than other kids | |

I was 10... And it was very heavy and they came every damn month till I was 17 or so... Then they just stopped. But I have really bad cramps and pain around the time I had AF... It would hurt when I pee or poo..... Still does when AF comes around now the I'm not BC...... Sometimes being a girl sucks soo bad!

I was 17. First period was induced by Provera, to make sure everything was functioning, since I was so old. Then I started on my own about a year later.

My first was on my 14th bday exactly.....Then I was irregular till I was 16, but then lost a bunch of weight and went without one for a year.....was put on bcp when I was 17, went off it 3 years later......and then stopped having periods again (and gained 30lb). I had 4 provera induced periods until my body finally started having them on their own again about a year after I stopped the pill. I'm still having some issues with things though, low progesterone and issues with weight loss  Trying really hard to figure out what is going on with that. | |

I was 12, almost 13, and we were flying home from Florida. I kept getting up to go to the bathroom on the plane because I couldn't decide if the stain on my underwear was actually my period. Silly me!
Needless to say my mom was really upset that I kept getting up because she thought I had eaten too much junk food.
When we landed and went to the bathroom in the airport, I came out of the stall and told her that I wasn't sick. . .I thought I got my period. She whipped out a pad and said, "Well, probably!" like it was no big deal.
