Question
I have had my period for over a year now and I still don't get it on a regular basis. Is this normal? Also I have A 32 sized breasts and I am in grade nine and I look at other girls' breasts and they are bigger then mine. Will mine ever get to a C 36?
Answer
It is very common to have irregular periods the first years of menstruating. If everything else is normal, I would only worry if the periods are coming every few weeks or if 5 months elapse without a period. Breasts continue to develop after menarche (your first period) but I can not predict how much they will grow. Not everybody should be a 36 C. For many people, smaller breasts look much better and in proportion with their body.
