Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

If you have not experienced menstruation, you will have to perform all the Salaah until you get the menses. The maximum period for Tuhur (purity) is unlimited.

You may obtain advise from your gynecologist on this issue.

And Allah knows best
