Hi tachibanna. Don't worry, it can happen like that and it's not unusual as your body is still adjusting to puberty!  Same happened to me, but that was years ago!

Why don't you have a chat with your mum, I'm sure she'll understand your concerns and perhaps a chat with your doctor would also set your mind at ease.  

 

Take care.

Hey don't worry hun like Lindy said it is very normal i had a 4 month gap between my first and second period and then they were 3 months and then it got to 2 and then after about a year started regular. Be glad of the space i hate being on now

As lindy lou & CHOPS 'R' US said, this is not at all unusual for someone of your age.   Much the same sort of thing used to happen to me  during my very early teens (many years ago!!)  On saying that, although it's a normal thing to happen, i did go to the Docs to get it checked out, and, as you're obviously worrying, you'd probably be wise to do the same, just to put your mind at rest - it'll make you feel better   xx Take care,everything will be fine x   :)

im 15 nd my periods have about a gap of 3-4 months between each 1 nd ive had them 4 over a yr now... so dnt worry!

Im 15 and after my first period I didnt get another one for (get this) 8 months. But it doesn't mean anything, your periods will get more regular as time goes on, just like mine did. Like others have said, a good chat with a trusted female adult usually makes you feel better in situations like this. Relax, you have nothing to worry about!

Periods suck and they never come when they are supposed to, don't worry about it.

I was 14 for my first time too. Now I'm 37 (38 tomorrow cause it's my B-day). You may start out irregularly at first - don't worry. You can expect more in a few months at the latest. Or you very physically active? That can make you skip.
