Want to stop period today!

I started my period last Saturday and normally it would have ended by now but for some reason its a little wacky (went 3 days light then two days heavy). I would like for it be over with today if possible (my out of town man is coming tonight!!!). Wondering if I had any options to end it.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi tryshmc, welcome!

If you are on birth control pills you could try starting a new pack today but that might not stop the bleeding in time. Another thing you could try is using Instead menstrual cups www.softcup.com . Instead is worn in your vagina to collect your flow and you can have intercourse with it inserted. Instead is available in the feminine hygiene sections of most pharmacies. Thanks for posting. Let us know how you're doing, ok?

Good luck,

      Jill
