Ok I was just wondering about this because my BMI is 14.5 (recovering from an eating disorder so don't bother with your dumb comments about needing to gain some weight..) And well I still have my period, granted it's a little irregular. So I was just wondering what is the average BMI girls stop having their period?

getting ur period or not, doesn't depend on BMI it depends on weight, and several other factors.

And it varies from person to person. I know some girls are really irregular and they're average, but some girls are regular and they are overweight.

I don't think it has to do with BMI, per say.  It has somewhat to do with weight, but mostly a lack of menustration is due to a lack of nutrients.
I think if you're on your way to recovery and are coming out of malnutrition, then your period will come back regardless of your weight.

I may be wrong, but that's what makes sense to me.
