Breast Development & Body Changes: A Guide for Teen Girls

Question
I'm 13 years old and I know that now's the time when us girls start to grow but I'm the tallest and flattest girl in my class!  I'm not made fun of or anything but how come everyone else actually fits into a cup size?  Is something wrong with me?

Answer
Dear Maya,
You still have lots of time to grow. I know its hard waiting for your body to mature. Your chest will start to develope just before your periods starts be a presence in you life, and you will continue to grow until about 18 or so. I have a feeling that by the time school starts again in the fall you will be well on your way to having a womanly figure. The whole developing thing takes it own time. I think that you are definately normal:) Some girls develope early, and some take a little more time. My advice is to be patient(I know that not what you want to hear) your figure will be there soon enough. Good Luck, if you have any other questions, please write to me, I'll be happy to help!
