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 1894 Views
I think revoking the championship and a ban at this point would be plain wrong - 11/09/2009 02:01:15 PM 1044 Views
Well said. - 11/09/2009 02:10:31 PM 1031 Views
agreed. *NM* - 11/09/2009 02:36:06 PM 520 Views
I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 03:20:05 PM 506 Views
I agree it's not her fault, but she shouldn't keep her championship. - 11/09/2009 03:50:06 PM 1028 Views
Possibly a quibble, but just trying to clarify... - 11/09/2009 05:15:52 PM 1140 Views
It makes sense - 13/09/2009 05:04:23 PM 1054 Views
I disagree - 11/09/2009 04:09:50 PM 1406 Views
As bad as if feel for the athlete, I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 04:46:57 PM 471 Views
To the extent that LadyLorraine means "at this point", I do agree with her... - 11/09/2009 05:03:34 PM 1120 Views
Sounds like she/he is more dude than chick..... - 11/09/2009 02:42:33 PM 1100 Views
not really. it only takes ONE mistake to cause her problems. - 12/09/2009 03:19:06 AM 1052 Views
It's not that simple with DNA either. - 12/09/2009 10:38:28 AM 1128 Views
no it's not as simple as "XX" and "XY" - 12/09/2009 03:02:03 PM 1058 Views
I think it is a sad story - 11/09/2009 04:34:29 PM 1106 Views
I agree. - 11/09/2009 09:20:35 PM 1151 Views
I like I said, tragic - 11/09/2009 09:34:57 PM 981 Views
I can't believe this whole thing is public - 11/09/2009 07:03:59 PM 1145 Views
That's a good idea! - 11/09/2009 07:17:20 PM 1046 Views
Yeah, seems fair. Medal, no record. - 11/09/2009 07:57:38 PM 999 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 484 Views
Not necessarily, depending on the rigors of her athletic training. *NM* - 11/09/2009 09:26:32 PM 462 Views
When do most girls get their first period? Around 12 or 13? - 12/09/2009 07:34:23 AM 990 Views
Yes, but 14 or 15 isn't out of the ordinary *NM* - 12/09/2009 11:23:09 AM 482 Views
I didn't start until I was 17 *NM* - 12/09/2009 03:02:28 PM 442 Views
That is a bit unusual. *shrugs* *NM* - 13/09/2009 01:17:18 AM 499 Views
starting THAT late is, yes - 13/09/2009 04:24:44 AM 1237 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 1083 Views
I'd say so too. Periods have a lot to do with % body fat. - 12/09/2009 12:28:46 AM 1159 Views
Not at the age when a girl first develops her period. - 12/09/2009 07:36:24 AM 1058 Views
You have an odd understanding of what's normal... - 12/09/2009 02:51:37 PM 1070 Views
And you are still missing the point. - 13/09/2009 01:18:54 AM 986 Views
And you're missing the point - 13/09/2009 01:39:46 AM 1017 Views
What Sareitha said. - 13/09/2009 03:50:05 AM 1165 Views
people develop 30lb tumors and never go to get them checked out - 11/09/2009 09:36:18 PM 1081 Views
Well, now that you put it that way I guess I could see that. *NM* - 12/09/2009 07:37:18 AM 472 Views
Not that rare in athletes. - 12/09/2009 01:06:27 AM 1002 Views
like i said in my first post - 12/09/2009 03:25:04 AM 1093 Views
I like that idea. That is the most sensible solution. *NM* - 12/09/2009 01:07:42 AM 438 Views
This whole thing has been handled disgracefully - 12/09/2009 12:37:35 PM 1177 Views
Considering that similar questions have arisen before - 13/09/2009 01:43:18 AM 1257 Views
