Hi BB,
Periods can be very irregular when they are just starting out. 7 months does seem like a long time though.
I'm just guessing but are you very thin or into sports? These are very common things can delay menstruation. 17 is a bit late as well for a first period. Stress and other conditions, such as thyroid problems can also delay menstruation.
It might be a good idea to see your doctor. Have a thorough checkup and find out what is going on.
If you are in generally good health, I wouldn't worry. Still, go get a checkup, OK?
Please post back and let us know how you are doing.
