It can be an unsettling experience when your period is late. Low or high body weight, stress, hormonal contraceptives and other hormone-related issues can all be contributing factors. Fortunately, there are natural remedies that can help you regulate your menstrual cycle and make your period come faster. Let’s explore 6 of them!
1 Parsley
Parsley has been used for centuries to induce menstruation. To benefit from it, try taking a daily dose of 6g of dried parsley leaves divided into 3 doses of 2g each. Alternatively, you can prepare a tea with 150ml of water and the leaves twice a day.
2 Papaya
Papaya is an effective home remedy to regulate your period and make it come faster. It contains carotene which stimulates the hormone estrogen – essential for earlier menstruation! Enjoy a bowl of raw papaya or 200ml of papaya juice twice a day.
3 Aloe Vera
Aloe vera juice isn’t just great for relieving stomach pain but also helps to induce menstruation if taken before breakfast in the form of 1 tablespoon of honey mixed with freshly squeezed aloe vera gel (minus any yellow parts). You could even purchase pure aloe vera gel from health food stores if easier.
4 Pomegranate
Drinking 200ml pomegranate juice thrice daily at least 10-15 days before your regular period could do wonders in triggering it sooner than expected! If that doesn’t sound quite appetising enough, try mixing pomegranate juice with cane juice in a ratio of 1:1 and drinking 4 times daily instead!
5 Celery Fresh celery juice
Celery Fresh celery juice twice a day could stimulate blood flow in the uterus and trigger menstruation early on as well!
