Can I speed up my period?

 

Check these out, too...

  • I'm only 13--why did my breasts stop growing?
  • Does it hurt when you first get your period?
  • Do guys only care about chest size?
  • I need longer pads! How do I tell Mom?
  • What stinks down south?
When my period comes, is there anything I can do to make it pass by faster?

 

Unfortunately, babe, unless you are on hormone regulators like birth control pills, there’s no sure-fire way to make Aunt Flo hit the road. You can make the whole thing more comfortable and easier to handle by drinking lots of water, which will help your body flush out everything it needs to. Stay away from super salty food to avoid bloating, and exercise regularly to fend off cramps.

Birth control-does work!

I agree the only way to make our periods "hit the road" is to get on birth control. My cousin has been on it since she was 13 and some of my friends have either been on it for a while or recently just gotten on it. Some because they had period problems and some because they started dating and wanted to be safe. I recently had a talk with my mom about it but it wasnt a long talk.

I think a lot of us would be amazed if we knew how many of us were on it. I was doing some studying and I think its about 30% or more of girls our age who are on birth control, so its kind of common. Plus if you go to the gyno the doctors recommend it if you start dating and are thinking about getting serious.

Mod mod mod!!!! Lynae P.... So what should I say about using them just be like hey mom can I try tampons??? And if you don't mind, if youdidask your mom when you were younger to users pons, how did you ask her and what did she say?? Thanks sorry for so many questions Smile

 

Hey Tayincali, yep that works. Um I didn't start using them until I was much older, but I would ask the same way you did. "Hey mommy, do you mind if I try tampons?" or "Can I get tampons this time?" Hope this helps! No worries about all your questions. I'm here to help ya out!! Xoxo

Hey smiles48, yeah I think that's normal. As long as you aren't experiencing any irritation or pain down there you should be good. Xoxo

Mod mod mod!!!!!! Lynae P!! Okay, I don't have my period now!! So should I write her a note about switching to tampons now or when I have my period which is in like 3 weeks?!?!?!? THANKS Smile

 

Hey Tayincali, it may be best to get it down with now. So by time you are on your period, you'll already have them. Xoxo
