The reason why your menarche (first time) is "late", probably has something to do with your diet.Normally, menarche is supposed to start at around age 12-14, but in the past few decades it's been starting as early as 9 years old.Food is so much more processed nowadays, and it's full of hormones and fats. In women, body fat stimulates estrogen production, which could trigger menarche earlier than usual. Have you noticed how childhood obesity is becoming more regular? Even if not tied, it's an interesting correlation.Anyway, if anything, I would guess that you're eating healthy. So don't be worried about starting late.</blockquote>
