Girls, How to stop my period! Tips?

[Anonymous]

I was supposed to hang out with my boyfriend today and go swimming and I got my period by surprise, is there any way i can stop it just for today?

There are ways to slow it, delay its start, stop it for a few hours, and end it early. You would have needed to start before the day you wanted it to happen, though.

Ibuprofen in large, frequent doses is /can be effective (remember they give large doses for extreme pain and after surgery, so it is safe for a day or two).

Red Raspberry Leaf tea/supplements may work as well. Larger doses of B vitamin, eating lemon (not just sucking the juice) and clear, plain gelatin mix that you get in the baking aisle can work as well.

There are others that elude me right now. Google and you will see the things I listed here plus a few more.

These may not work for everyone but they DO work for some if done at the right rime. I was able to delay mine for three days a few times, I stopped it early several times and slowed it to barely there for a day in the middle a couple of times.

Some girls love Diva cups, but they are completely worthless for my heavy days. Still, look them up, too.

You can use a birth control pill to help regulate your. So you won't be surprised. But no, you cannot stop your period. Just remember to change your tampon often.

No, there is nothing you can do in such a short time. OOOps, mother nature dealt you a crappy hand today.

Drink vinegar, suck on a lemon. And make jelly but don't put it in the fridge :) just drink it. I've done these and I promise it works :)!

U can use a tampon for swimming and I've heard eating a raw vegan diet has stopped girls periods before but that takes along time.

You can't stop your period. When you go swimming the blood doesn't really come out but you can try a tampon.

Hate to break it to you, but I don't think there is a way to pause it for one day. Sorry!

[Hello_Lemonz]

you can stop it from spilling by using tampons..
But, you can't really "stop" your period.

No you'll just have to use a tampon

Start taking contraceptive pills or wear a tampon.
