How Can I End My Period Quicker?

[lovya90]

is there any possible way without using the pill that i can end my period a couple days earlier?? is there any way to lighten it?

I'm not sure if there is anything you can go out and buy, but i think the pill is one of the best ways. When you next have a chance to, go down to your local drug store and ask them or have a look, don't be embarresed because there are billions of other women who have periods :)

You could always lose TONS of weight and not have a period at all.. But i dont think you want to do that. So i gues shte pill is the only way, although I dont know what the pill is.

Maybe the pill would but why would you want to i mean many girls go through it is't nothing to be ashamed of

I've read from a few resources that the pill dulls and lightens the period, and periods may become a bit more regular, tho there is no other true way to end or lighten periods without a weird medicine that has to be prescribed.

I know a lot of women athletes lose their periods, can't remember why though

Ohh, that's Athletic Amenorrhea (it's bad), for a Q&A article about it read here (http://www.med.umich.edu/1libr/wha/wha_athameno_sma.htm).

i can't tell my mom i need to get the pill....and i heard it isn't good for you

Why can't you tell her?
I've read that the only serious drawbacks to the Pill is it increases your chances of heart attack or stroke and that you must take it every day : / but if you're not sexually active or your periods too much, then I don't see a real reason to take it.

I heard that you can walk into a Planned Parenthood clinic and get the Pill w/o your parents. Tho that's only for some states and it costs money. You can search Google for Planned Parenthood for more info.

Still, why can't you tell her?

[lovya90]

she will think it is for sex with my boyfriend

Hmm...well you can make excuses, but be sure to do whatever works for you, even if you have to say that you want them to dull your period :D

I forgot when, but I read somewhere that exercising will make it faster although it may be heavier.

Seeing as this topic is from June of last year, I doubt the OP is interested anymore...
