Customer question:
How can I speed up my period to get it earlier than usual in my cycle? Question from an anonymous forum customer
Pharmacist's answer:
Dong Quai
Dong quai, also known as female ginseng or angelica sinensis, is a plant that originates from China. It has been used for over a hundred years to relieve symptoms associated with menopause and menstruation. Dong quai can be made into a tea and is often sold with other herbs.
Release
Stress can sometimes be the cause of delayed or missed periods. Increased stress hormones can affect those needed to maintain a regular menstrual cycle. There are many ways to relieve stress and promote relaxation:
- reducing workload if possible
- spending time with friends and family
- yoga and breathing techniques
- physical activity
- doing a hobby
- use of meditation techniques
Warm compress or bath
A warm bath can help relax tense muscles and relieve emotional stress. You can try adding a relaxing scented oil to the bath. You can also try a warm compress, such as a heating pad, by placing it on your stomach.
Sexual relations
Regular intercourse can reduce the effects of stress and help promote a healthy hormonal balance. Hormones produced and released during orgasm can also contribute to a faster onset of menstruation.
Contraceptive pills
A more long-term solution to the problem of irregular periods is the use of hormonal contraception. By controlling hormone levels in the body, these contraceptives can provide a degree of certainty as to when your period will arrive.
Contraception pills can have side effects. So before you decide to consume, consult your doctor.
