how to induce a late period? :)

[starxxed.livejournal.com]

hi. i'm a newcomer to this community. i have always had irregular periods, usually late by at least a week or two these days. i was wondering if there are any natural ways to induce a late period? waiting for my late period can be uncomfortable as i remain a little bloated and crampy for long periods of time.. and i'd really like to be able to bring it on already. i know i'm not pregnant as of now. are there any herbs or foods or supplements i can take to help get things going? sorry if this has been covered before... i'd just really appreciate the info :) thanks!

i think i heard on here that if you take a lot of vitamin c it's supposed to help induce a period.

Some people are successful using parsley tea, but it tastes nurrrsty.

many thanks! following the simple instructions from bloodmoonherbs , i boiled about 4-5 cups of water. taking it off the heat afterwards, i threw in a generous handful of fresh parsley leaves. i let it steep, covered, for 30 minutes. over the course of about an hour or maybe more, i drank about 4 8oz servings of the pale green liquid. it does have an interesting taste; i didn't find it to be particularly bad in flavor. afterwards, i felt fine, no cramps or any other discomfort. a few hours later, i went to bed. this morning upon waking, the first trip to the bathroom proved that yes, it had worked for me! i recommend reading the site for other interesting information and herbal options, but parsley tea really helped me out, and it's pretty good for you, too.

Hi there! The parsley tea mothod never worked for me, but I think I was given the wrong instructions! I was told to use dried parsley. I was wondering - after taking the water off the heat, do you wait before the water to cool down a tad before putting in the fresh parsely or can you put it in immediately? I was ALSO told that boiling water kills whatever is in the parsley that induces the period! Please let me know, and sorry for all the questions :) (I haven't had a period in almost a year and I'm desperate! :X)

if you haven't had one in a year, the gynecologist can actually prescribe a pill that will induce it for you. i know it's not the natural way...but still. :)

:) I don't mind it not being the natural way. How would I go about doing that thugh.. I mean, would it require a pelvic exam or no?

i simply waited for the water to boil, took the water off the stove, (it was no longer boiling at this point of course since it was not being heated anymore) :) :) and threw the fresh parsley into the hot water. then it steeped, and over the course of steeping it naturally cooled to a reasonable drinking temperature. i don't know anything about *boiling* water vs. parsley active ingredients, but the water i used was of course no longer boiling. and it definitely worked quickly for me. of course all women are different, with different reasons for menstrual quirks. :)
