Okay, I had a really bad experience with Parsley tea (I got sick) and I get sick when I have ginger, so what other things can make your period come faster? Is it only certain teas? I need something that's not nutmeg, ginger, or a tea.

Does such a thing exist?

why do you want it to come sooner? Here I am taking BCPs to make mine come LATER! I'm currently on an 8-week cycle, which is soooo much better than a 4-week cycle. I tried to make it a 12-week cycle, but my body didn't go for that.

Do you have problems eating parsley? You could lust have a nice parsley salad with a vinaigrette.

i don't know (sorry) because i've never tried and i'm on birth control.

if you can find a list of herbs which can regulate your cycle, maybe you can find those herbs in capsule form or maybe have them put in capsule form for you. try asking at the health store.

Have you thought that the reason that 'this' makes you sick is because you are trying to mess up something that doesn't want to be messed up? Regulating is much healthier then inducing, and you can do that without bc. Just be realy careful, and talk to a physision that is knowledgable of herbals. Or at least talk to someone that has had a good background in herb lore that will be able to tell you the ins and outs. But when you mess around with one cycle then the next one gets screwed up and the uterus does not like that. Litsten to your body. If it gets sick trying something, it is telling you that it doesn't like it and to stop. You might have a voice to others, but your body language is more subtle then that.

seizure medicine? I have a friend that has photosensitive epelepsy, and the meds that she was one actually worked better when she was on birthcontrol because of the hormonal regulation. When she was off the pill she was more suceptable to seisures. But I don't know what you are taking.
The things that I offered are not birthcontrol. They just help with regulating. They do not stop ovulation; they don't trick your body; and they do not force you to have a period. What they do is help with the hormonal levels in the body so that they have a better pattern. Mor regular (like eating fiber for the uterus). Parsley is a slight abortive, so it is really hard on the body to eat it in high doses. That is why they tell pregnant women not to eat it.
There was another lady on here that responded to my post about chaste tree and says that she takes it via pill. She said that it works really well, makes her cycle come right on the dot, her cramps are way less, and the flow is much lighter. But because of your seisure meds, it would be best to talk to your doctor about whan chemicals can affect the ability for it to do its job. Meanwhile I will talk to my friend and see if she has any help for you! cheers! :)

it only works if you regulate all of them, and I have been told that might take a while to see the effects, but the effects are totally worth the while, and that after that, you don't ever have to worry about it again. Spot checking (which is what I call inducing) doesn't help the problem and you will always have to 'fix' your period once you get in the cycle of inducing. It is a downward spiral and makes it hard for your system to balance. Be careful!
