From my experience... you can try a couple things. \n1. Try douching with warm water.\n2. Try masterbating/intercourse.  your "chemicals" have been know to speed up the menses. \nI use to play the "hurry it up" or "push it up" when I was on the BC pills for the weekends with B/f but that worked with pills. \nHowever, I dont think your can completely stop mother nature...once its started.  try hurrying it up.

Ok, so check with your doctor first, to see if they think it's an ok thing to do.  I have done it before, and my doctor OK-ed it first.\n\nWhen you get to the last set of pills, or the placebo pills, throw the pack out and start a new one.  This will only work if your period if regular and hasn't started yet.\n\nI think some people forget that having your period means a lot more than just bleeding.  A tampon isn't going to get rid of the bloating, irritability, and cramps that could potentially ruin a vacation.  So if your doctor says it's safe.... GO FOR IT!

go to an essentail oil shop and buy Clary Sage, Geranium, Lavendar and marjoram, mix 2 drops of each of these in 10Ml of a bse oil such as almond oil and rub the mix over your abdomen (front and back) twice a day for 3 days before your period starts and twice a day every day of your period and you can also do it more often if the cramps are bad.\n\nMy wife uses this mix and swears by it.

Or you could go to a Chiropractor.  They are known for helping women get through their cycle with minimal amounts of pain, bloating, etc.  No meds and you allow your body to do what it has to do to stay healthy.\n\nHaving a period is like a tree that loses it leaves in the fall.  The leaves come back eventually.  Nature deems it necessary.  Trees don't say to other trees, how do keep my leaves all winter long?  Nature deems you have a period once a month, you should get it once a month.  \n\nNot to say it doesn't hurt, but don't eliminate it.  There is plenty you can do to make it easier on you without taking meds or screwing with your physiology.  When you start screwing with your physiology worse things will happen than having a period once a month.\n\nAgain, see a Chiropractor, email me and i'll help you find a good one.  I known good Chiros all over the world, I am one.

Ask your doctor.  They gave me a pill to prevent lactation.  It worked.

The best way to regulate cycles is The Pill.  Talk to you GYN about your options!

Banannas/Yogurt\nAnything with lots of potassium is good....check out some home remedies. Like if you swallow down cumin and salt [drink helluh water down] it will sort of make your menstruation not as...severe?

I would defiantly go to the gynecologist! They will probably put you birth control pills to regulate your menstrual cycle. Hope this helps!

I know that exercise can delay periods.  Try running everyday until your trip.  It might not work if there isn't enough time for your body to adjust, but I have a friend who works out almost everyday and she has very light to no period at all

Spotting can be just regular due to ovulation. Or you may have an irregular period and need to go on a birth control method to help regulate it.\n\nIf you are that concerned then go to the Gyno.

I am having the same exact problem, and am looking into Ortho Tricyclen-Lo, and other low hormone alternatives.  Because I was prescribed birth control specifically to regulate my periods, I don't really have the option of getting off it.\n\nIf you decide to get off of it altogether, VCF (Vaginal Contraceptive Film), is not messy and is effective in preventing pregnancy.  I highly recommend it.

If she's on birth control pills she can skip the last week of non-hormone pills and start a new pack. This should keep her period from coming. Have a good trip!

Yes, you can just stop at any time, and it is safe to do so.\nHowever, you might want to let your doctor know.  He might want to discuss other options for treating your periods.  And we doctors always like to know when a patient is having a side effect from a medication.

heating pads have become my best friend during my period. You can buy them at the store and place them against your stomach. They work wonders! I also tend to enjoy chocolate during my unhappy time. Well, Good luck getting rid of the cramps!
