What Sareitha said. Lupine Send a noteboard - 13/09/2009 03:50:05 AM
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 1387 Views
I think revoking the championship and a ban at this point would be plain wrong - 11/09/2009 02:01:15 PM 755 Views
Well said. - 11/09/2009 02:10:31 PM 740 Views
agreed. *NM* - 11/09/2009 02:36:06 PM 388 Views
I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 03:20:05 PM 375 Views
I agree it's not her fault, but she shouldn't keep her championship. - 11/09/2009 03:50:06 PM 716 Views
Possibly a quibble, but just trying to clarify... - 11/09/2009 05:15:52 PM 814 Views
It makes sense - 13/09/2009 05:04:23 PM 761 Views
I disagree - 11/09/2009 04:09:50 PM 1079 Views
As bad as if feel for the athlete, I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 04:46:57 PM 353 Views
To the extent that LadyLorraine means "at this point", I do agree with her... - 11/09/2009 05:03:34 PM 807 Views
Sounds like she/he is more dude than chick..... - 11/09/2009 02:42:33 PM 807 Views
not really. it only takes ONE mistake to cause her problems. - 12/09/2009 03:19:06 AM 748 Views
It's not that simple with DNA either. - 12/09/2009 10:38:28 AM 843 Views
no it's not as simple as "XX" and "XY" - 12/09/2009 03:02:03 PM 773 Views
I think it is a sad story - 11/09/2009 04:34:29 PM 810 Views
I agree. - 11/09/2009 09:20:35 PM 849 Views
I like I said, tragic - 11/09/2009 09:34:57 PM 720 Views
I can't believe this whole thing is public - 11/09/2009 07:03:59 PM 845 Views
That's a good idea! - 11/09/2009 07:17:20 PM 746 Views
Yeah, seems fair. Medal, no record. - 11/09/2009 07:57:38 PM 696 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 348 Views
Not necessarily, depending on the rigors of her athletic training. *NM* - 11/09/2009 09:26:32 PM 326 Views
When do most girls get their first period? Around 12 or 13? - 12/09/2009 07:34:23 AM 664 Views
Yes, but 14 or 15 isn't out of the ordinary *NM* - 12/09/2009 11:23:09 AM 345 Views
I didn't start until I was 17 *NM* - 12/09/2009 03:02:28 PM 326 Views
That is a bit unusual. *shrugs* *NM* - 13/09/2009 01:17:18 AM 338 Views
starting THAT late is, yes - 13/09/2009 04:24:44 AM 936 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 772 Views
I'd say so too. Periods have a lot to do with % body fat. - 12/09/2009 12:28:46 AM 859 Views
Not at the age when a girl first develops her period. - 12/09/2009 07:36:24 AM 753 Views
You have an odd understanding of what's normal... - 12/09/2009 02:51:37 PM 800 Views
And you are still missing the point. - 13/09/2009 01:18:54 AM 700 Views
And you're missing the point - 13/09/2009 01:39:46 AM 733 Views
What Sareitha said. - 13/09/2009 03:50:05 AM 889 Views
people develop 30lb tumors and never go to get them checked out - 11/09/2009 09:36:18 PM 788 Views
Well, now that you put it that way I guess I could see that. *NM* - 12/09/2009 07:37:18 AM 324 Views
Not that rare in athletes. - 12/09/2009 01:06:27 AM 693 Views
like i said in my first post - 12/09/2009 03:25:04 AM 770 Views
I like that idea. That is the most sensible solution. *NM* - 12/09/2009 01:07:42 AM 310 Views
This whole thing has been handled disgracefully - 12/09/2009 12:37:35 PM 879 Views
Considering that similar questions have arisen before - 13/09/2009 01:43:18 AM 916 Views
