When do most girls get their first period? Around 12 or 13? everynametaken Send a noteboard - 12/09/2009 07:34:23 AM
She was not a world class sprinter at that age. She didn't just have a delayed period or very little discharge, she never had anything at all at any age. Either she or her mother would have known something was up.
But wine was the great assassin of both tradition and propriety...

Caster Semenya has male sex organs and no womb or ovaries - 11/09/2009 12:24:30 PM 1478 Views
I think revoking the championship and a ban at this point would be plain wrong - 11/09/2009 02:01:15 PM 831 Views
Well said. - 11/09/2009 02:10:31 PM 816 Views
agreed. *NM* - 11/09/2009 02:36:06 PM 412 Views
I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 03:20:05 PM 402 Views
I agree it's not her fault, but she shouldn't keep her championship. - 11/09/2009 03:50:06 PM 792 Views
Possibly a quibble, but just trying to clarify... - 11/09/2009 05:15:52 PM 892 Views
It makes sense - 13/09/2009 05:04:23 PM 838 Views
I disagree - 11/09/2009 04:09:50 PM 1155 Views
As bad as if feel for the athlete, I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 04:46:57 PM 385 Views
To the extent that LadyLorraine means "at this point", I do agree with her... - 11/09/2009 05:03:34 PM 885 Views
Sounds like she/he is more dude than chick..... - 11/09/2009 02:42:33 PM 889 Views
not really. it only takes ONE mistake to cause her problems. - 12/09/2009 03:19:06 AM 824 Views
It's not that simple with DNA either. - 12/09/2009 10:38:28 AM 917 Views
no it's not as simple as "XX" and "XY" - 12/09/2009 03:02:03 PM 848 Views
I think it is a sad story - 11/09/2009 04:34:29 PM 894 Views
I agree. - 11/09/2009 09:20:35 PM 934 Views
I like I said, tragic - 11/09/2009 09:34:57 PM 784 Views
I can't believe this whole thing is public - 11/09/2009 07:03:59 PM 920 Views
That's a good idea! - 11/09/2009 07:17:20 PM 834 Views
Yeah, seems fair. Medal, no record. - 11/09/2009 07:57:38 PM 774 Views
How could she not know something was different? Not developing a period would be a major sign. *NM* - 11/09/2009 09:21:54 PM 381 Views
Not necessarily, depending on the rigors of her athletic training. *NM* - 11/09/2009 09:26:32 PM 356 Views
When do most girls get their first period? Around 12 or 13? - 12/09/2009 07:34:23 AM 747 Views
Yes, but 14 or 15 isn't out of the ordinary *NM* - 12/09/2009 11:23:09 AM 377 Views
I didn't start until I was 17 *NM* - 12/09/2009 03:02:28 PM 356 Views
That is a bit unusual. *shrugs* *NM* - 13/09/2009 01:17:18 AM 374 Views
starting THAT late is, yes - 13/09/2009 04:24:44 AM 1007 Views
There are plenty of runners who do hard training that keeps them from getting a regular period - 11/09/2009 09:29:24 PM 848 Views
I'd say so too. Periods have a lot to do with % body fat. - 12/09/2009 12:28:46 AM 930 Views
Not at the age when a girl first develops her period. - 12/09/2009 07:36:24 AM 828 Views
You have an odd understanding of what's normal... - 12/09/2009 02:51:37 PM 841 Views
And you are still missing the point. - 13/09/2009 01:18:54 AM 776 Views
And you're missing the point - 13/09/2009 01:39:46 AM 810 Views
What Sareitha said. - 13/09/2009 03:50:05 AM 959 Views
people develop 30lb tumors and never go to get them checked out - 11/09/2009 09:36:18 PM 871 Views
Well, now that you put it that way I guess I could see that. *NM* - 12/09/2009 07:37:18 AM 360 Views
Not that rare in athletes. - 12/09/2009 01:06:27 AM 771 Views
like i said in my first post - 12/09/2009 03:25:04 AM 851 Views
I like that idea. That is the most sensible solution. *NM* - 12/09/2009 01:07:42 AM 343 Views
This whole thing has been handled disgracefully - 12/09/2009 12:37:35 PM 946 Views
Considering that similar questions have arisen before - 13/09/2009 01:43:18 AM 1003 Views
