Dd 13 fully developed but no periods?

[TheEmojiFormerlyKnownAsPrince]

She started getting boobs at 9. She has hair under her arms, and as l have to apply cream daily to her vulva, she has full pubic hair.

She has a horrible skin disease related to hormones, and I’m kind of hoping it will go away when her periods start. But she’s 5ft 9 and as developed as a woman. Her friends have all started

YesQueen, how did it present initially?

She had 3 lesions at 1/2 term and one was almost too painful to walk. This was the first time.

We’ve been given clindamycin gel and a tetracycline for 3 months. The gel is good, but only got rid of the surface stuff. She’s only been on anti biotics for a few days. Everything I’ve read, says eventually they all stop working. I’m beside myself with worry and anxiety. My beautiful girl😰

Htf do people go through the hell of adolescence with this?

Because Drpeatbody:

1)I can’t get an appointment at the Gp for 2 weeks.
2) By talking to a group of parents of teenage girls, l thought l they could be some helpful advice re periods. That’s why l posted.
3) l didn’t ask for opinions at any point about it.
So👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Thanks for your kind answer. I hope your children don’t ever get this hideous disease

Yes queen did you get flares? Or was it there all the time?

My 💔is breaking

@TheEmojiFormerlyKnownAsPrince abscesses/spots/boils in my groin area, mostly in the sort of crease
I had them on and off since then, then I got one in my armpit which needed surgery. Since the op (incision, drainage and plastic surgery after that) I've had no more in my armpit ever
I'm immunocompromised, TBH I rarely take antibiotics for them, I use hot compresses, baths, wash with hibiscrub/dettol soap and ignore them/burst if needed. Mine either come up and burst and drain or they just disappear
It sounds awful but yes they are painful but as there's no cure I just carry on and am thankful I'm stage 1 and not affected elsewhere

Yes to flares. I have some purple/red marks that are there all the time but they do fade
Sometimes I get one pop up and go within a few days, sometimes I get 2/3

I know this will sound like I'm minimising it, but I think you will have to relax about it a bit, sorry.

I was my adult height, with hips and a bust and body hair for a long time before I started mine. Admittedly I was sporty, and did a lot of dancing, but I was a healthy weight and still didn't start until I was nearly sixteen.

It does sound horrible (for both you and her) but you can't spend the next two/three years worrying about something nothing can really be done about.

I mean her periods starting, not the skin condition — it sounds like you're doing everything you can with that.

I’m sorry you’re not getting fully supportive replies OP, I can’t help but just letting you know there are supportive people out there.

Thanks to the kind people on this thread.

My dd had some pubic and underarm hair age 10. By age 13 she was wearing a bigger bra size than me. She didn't start her periods until 16.

I don't think you need to worry about her periods. By the time it might be a sign of a medical issue, age 17 or 18, she will be old enough to go to the doctor herself if she wants.

OP, your daughter's condition sounds awful, I am so sorry she's having to deal with that on top of puberty. What a stressful situation for you both

In terms of periods, I was just shy of 14 when I started but had been properly developed for a long time before. However, my daughter who was a very skinny small little thing started at 8. There is no rhyme or reason. It'll happen when it's supposed to.

I stared at 15 but I had all the other signs for long before that.

Poor DS. Still, she is being lucky in not yet starting periods - not only for the usual reasons (do fuck off Aunt Flo), but it'll only make looking after the other problem harder.

I was at college and nearly 18 when I started, my younger dsis started at 11, 3 years before I did. There is such a wide range of normal , but totally understandable to worry when she is having such a difficult time.

OP my dd is nearly 16 still no period is fully developed she is on as waiting list to be seen but could be a long wait the gp said.
My dd2 had hers at 13

My DD is 16 and only started her periods the month after turning 16. She's been physically fully developed for years. On my side of the family late onset is normal - I was 15.5 and my Dsis was past 16 too. GPs tend not to worry until they've hit the 16 mark.

Do you think she’s fully grown height wise? My DD started just after her 13th bday but was pretty fully grown (and developed) by then. They became regular at 13.5. She didn’t grow much, height-wise after.

I was 14 when mine started. I had been pretty well developed for a good couple of years before that.

My younger sister started hers a couple of months after me, so she was 12. I don't know if there's any reason for it, but both of us were/are considered normal.

I'm pretty certain that there's no cause for concern until 16. If they're late starting that's a good thing, especially if she's got other health issues to worry about. It's one less thing to cause discomfort and/or embarrassment.

One of my daughters was 15.
