UPDATE: I'm about to try the Parsley tea method, wish me luck!

ShaTerra, on September 8, 2012 at 9:15 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 1 19

EDIT: I started trying the parsley tea method on September 8th, a full wk before my period (was supposed to start on the 16th). First, I used dry organic parsley flakes to make the tea, adding honey for taste chugging it 2-3 times a day. I even ate some raw to try to speed up the process. Nothing happened. After 3 days of trying, I got discouraged and stopped. I started back up the next day on the 11th with fresh parsley. I chopped up fresh parsley to make the tea using the same method I did with dried parsley, drinking twice a day. I also did the vaginal pessary method with the fresh parsley which was awkward, changing every 12 hrs. By the afternoon of 9/12, I noticed light bloody discharge (tmi) when I went to change the pessary but I wasn't convinced so I did another pessary and only kept it in for a few hrs then sure enough, my period was full blown this morning! It should be gone by the time my Brazilian appt on 9/18 & definitely by our wedding day. Yay!

    I've done that before since my period likes to delay itself when I'm stressed, I just put a teaspoon of parsley and half a teaspoon of rosemary in a tea infuser, cover with boiling water, steep for 5 minutes and add some raw honey and enjoy! Do it for 3 days in a row when your period is supposed to come and it usually works. Feverfew can also be used but it doesn't taste good by itself so I mix green tea with it. Don't do it if you could be pregnant or if you are trying to get pregnant. Hope this helps!

    With feverfew though it does have side effects if you use it more than 3 times a week, its good for getting rid of headaches but if you use it too much than you will get headaches as a withdrawl symptom. Herbal remedies are great but make sure you read up on them cause they can be misused lol

    Thank you so much for posting this. Going to start trying it today. I had never heard of this but like Brandy, when I am stressed my period is all over the place. We will be in HI for the wedding and although I don't mind the mess of the period I "Hate" the roller coaster moods.

    @Brandy, Is one cup per day or a few times a day for three days?

    At the most I'd drink it twice a day, once in the morning once at night. I'd add ginger to it in the morning because that also helps with circulation and blood flow, plus it energised me for the day Smiley smile either powdered in with the herbs in the tea infuser or fresh ginger root sliced in the hot water will work.

    Ok just wanted to post that this worked!

    Maybe a little TMI but Brandy I followed your recipe and drank a cup of the tea late yesterday afternoon and woke up to my buddy at 2am. Now never truly excited about my period but like Sha Terra, if I can sway mine just a few days early it would make a big difference.

    On another note, funny story. While the tea was brewing, FH was making me dinner. He was watching me stir some honey in the cup and he started chanting. I was giggling so hard I almost couldn't drink it. He's really good at rhyming and he is now sure it was his chant and not the tea that did it.

    Thank you all for posting this! I've tried parsley tea and it is great for getting "aunt flo out of town" early lol! I started using it because I would go many months without one which worried me, so I have been using the tea to keep me regular sort to speak!

    Thank you for posting this I appreciate it so much . God bless you and your family . Does the length of the parsley matter ? I stuffed it as far as I possibly can in my vagina . The length was about 4 inches of the parsley . Is that ok ? I hope and pray that this method works for me thank you for everything . God bless and Take care

    As for me parsley tea is too awful. I really hate it, so I prefer to use

    some another tips to make my period start faster, such as relaxing in

    hot bath or working out. I also must say if you really want to solve

    problem with your periods, firstly you should find a root of troubles!

    There is one good article:

    http://stopyourperiod.org/how-to-make-your-period-come.html It helped me

    and I hope it help you too!

    I don't suggest you put parsley up the vagina, you can get an infection & go into toxic shock. It's not worth it. Just drink it.

    Parsley can be utilized as something beyond a simple embellishment in your weight reduction diet. Add 1/2 to 1 cup of parsley to each salad serving, including starch-weighty ones like rice, pasta, or potato plates of mixed greens, to help the plate of mixed greens supplement content right away.
