She would never have had anything, not at 11, 12 , 13, or 14 , or EVER.


At 14, it's still normal not to have anything yet. At 15 in serious athletic training, it's also normal to have nothing. So there's no moment where amenorrhea alone would have caused them to go, "Hey, something is definitely wrong."

Caster Semenya has male sex organs and no womb or ovaries - 11/09/2009 12:24:30 PM 1863 Views
I think revoking the championship and a ban at this point would be plain wrong - 11/09/2009 02:01:15 PM 1026 Views
Well said. - 11/09/2009 02:10:31 PM 1007 Views
agreed. *NM* - 11/09/2009 02:36:06 PM 508 Views
I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 03:20:05 PM 495 Views
I agree it's not her fault, but she shouldn't keep her championship. - 11/09/2009 03:50:06 PM 1000 Views
Possibly a quibble, but just trying to clarify... - 11/09/2009 05:15:52 PM 1118 Views
It makes sense - 13/09/2009 05:04:23 PM 1037 Views
I disagree - 11/09/2009 04:09:50 PM 1379 Views
As bad as if feel for the athlete, I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 04:46:57 PM 458 Views
To the extent that LadyLorraine means "at this point", I do agree with her... - 11/09/2009 05:03:34 PM 1089 Views
Sounds like she/he is more dude than chick..... - 11/09/2009 02:42:33 PM 1081 Views
not really. it only takes ONE mistake to cause her problems. - 12/09/2009 03:19:06 AM 1029 Views
It's not that simple with DNA either. - 12/09/2009 10:38:28 AM 1099 Views
no it's not as simple as "XX" and "XY" - 12/09/2009 03:02:03 PM 1039 Views
I think it is a sad story - 11/09/2009 04:34:29 PM 1083 Views
I agree. - 11/09/2009 09:20:35 PM 1131 Views
I like I said, tragic - 11/09/2009 09:34:57 PM 959 Views
I can't believe this whole thing is public - 11/09/2009 07:03:59 PM 1125 Views
That's a good idea! - 11/09/2009 07:17:20 PM 1022 Views
Yeah, seems fair. Medal, no record. - 11/09/2009 07:57:38 PM 979 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 470 Views
Not necessarily, depending on the rigors of her athletic training. *NM* - 11/09/2009 09:26:32 PM 448 Views
When do most girls get their first period? Around 12 or 13? - 12/09/2009 07:34:23 AM 969 Views
Yes, but 14 or 15 isn't out of the ordinary *NM* - 12/09/2009 11:23:09 AM 469 Views
I didn't start until I was 17 *NM* - 12/09/2009 03:02:28 PM 429 Views
That is a bit unusual. *shrugs* *NM* - 13/09/2009 01:17:18 AM 486 Views
starting THAT late is, yes - 13/09/2009 04:24:44 AM 1216 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 1053 Views
I'd say so too. Periods have a lot to do with % body fat. - 12/09/2009 12:28:46 AM 1139 Views
Not at the age when a girl first develops her period. - 12/09/2009 07:36:24 AM 1036 Views
You have an odd understanding of what's normal... - 12/09/2009 02:51:37 PM 1046 Views
And you are still missing the point. - 13/09/2009 01:18:54 AM 969 Views
And you're missing the point - 13/09/2009 01:39:46 AM 995 Views

people develop 30lb tumors and never go to get them checked out - 11/09/2009 09:36:18 PM 1060 Views
Well, now that you put it that way I guess I could see that. *NM* - 12/09/2009 07:37:18 AM 456 Views
Not that rare in athletes. - 12/09/2009 01:06:27 AM 976 Views
like i said in my first post - 12/09/2009 03:25:04 AM 1070 Views
I like that idea. That is the most sensible solution. *NM* - 12/09/2009 01:07:42 AM 427 Views
This whole thing has been handled disgracefully - 12/09/2009 12:37:35 PM 1152 Views
Considering that similar questions have arisen before - 13/09/2009 01:43:18 AM 1223 Views
