A true period is an event that happens after ovulation. Bleeding other than a period can happen without ovulation, but is called withdrawal bleeding (which is the kind you get when you are on hormonal contraceptives) or breakthrough bleeding. If you are concerned about your health because you are not having periods taking artificial hormones is not going to help, but only make your health worse. If you are waiting for a first period, don't despair, it will come! If you are in a state of amenorrhea do some things to improve your health and you can bring your period back.
