Day 2, and im about to drink my 4th and final cup of tea for the night! nothing yet. Im starting to get a bit apprehensive as theres no signs this is going to work. I dread drinking it every time because it tastes worse and worse each time. yuck! Im thinking maybe it isnt working yet because my first 3 cups yesterday, I only used 1 TEASPOON of flakes, I swore thats what it said on the post, but before my last cup before bed..I checked and it was 1 TABLESPOON. So, Ill drink my last cup for the day and start again tomorrow. It says to do this no longer than 3 days, so Im hoping it works by tomorrow! *crosses fingers* pleaseeeeeeee aunt flo, COME!! :|

I tried the parsely tea method and just couldn't do it. I took one zip and now I never want to smell parsely again!
What I did try that did work (or maybe my period was just going to come the next day anyways) was Vitamin C pills. I took 1250 mg of Vitamin C on a Friday afternoon and night, then on Sat at noon I got my period. I had taken a 25 mg vitamin c pill that morning as well. My period was about 9 days late.
I'd try relaxing if I were you. I'd also try the vitamin c pills too.

It does work.......but man does that stuff taste nasty. >_< When I used the tea my cycle finally kicked in around day 3.

Plugging your nose (pinching it shut with your fingers) while chugging it back will help kill the taste. Dunno why that works....but it does.

good idea, but bad too ... plugging your nose temporary destroys your olifactory center which means you can't taste anything - taste and smell are very interrelated and that's why when you're sick and have a stuffy nose, food all tastes sort of off. but i figured hey, if i chug it i can take another one too! so i did...and then promptly threw up. i think some people's stomachs are more sensitive to hot water or something, because it was massively unpleasant.

just thought i'd share .. .chugging comes with risks too!

Eeeep....didnt know that. O.o

Any chance when you do do that, that you can permanently destroy your sense of taste? Because that would massively suck.

When I did it too, I waited till the 'tea' was lukewarm, and tried throwing it back to the back of my mouth in gulps...tried avoiding it touching my tounge as much as possible.

You know what else has a nasty taste? Don Quai tea. I used to take that for my cramps, and it tastes like liquid celery. Disgusting taste. >_
