I’m supposed to get my period the day before my wedding, and I’m going on my honeymoon directly after. Any recommendations or suggestions on something I can do to have it come earlier?? I’m also stressed so it might even be a date or two late which would be worse. Thank you!

I've heard eating papaya helps. Also I was in the same boat two months ago but maybe the stress or diet or something caused me to have mine earlier

Thank you!!

When is your wedding? If it’s not like next week go to your gyno ASAP. They can help and make it not be then

I do not recommend messing with your hormones right before your wedding and honeymoon! Impacts emotions, ability to handle stress, personality, and sex drive. Not worth it! Just get a mooncup to avoid tampons/leakage and have period sex on your honeymoon !

I got BC 3 months before my wedding because I was supposed to get it 2 days before my wedding. I thought I was being so clever and starting it early.. wrong-o, I had a period that lasted 4 weeks. You never know how your body is going to react to the change in hormones. It was a disaster with my seamstress because I was so bloated for some of my fittings after being on my period for so long that my dress almost didn’t zip. It all worked out in the end and I finished my period 2 days before the wedding but honestly, the stress leading up about my dress not fitting was 100% not worth it

That starts a debate on why one shouldn’t get married, how much wedding costs & what a waste it is, dresses are stupid because you only wear them once, etc. I haven’t talked about my wedding much, but I didn’t appreciate this. I ignored the negative comments and we moved the conversation along. Not talking about that anymore!

I’m excited for my wedding but it’s almost 9 months away and I started planning it over a year ago. However, whenever I’m around friends/family it’s the only thing people want to talk to me about.

I work full time & I’m in school right now so I’m stressed about those things and I don’t know how to communicate that I’d just rather not talk about the wedding without sounding ungrateful/happy
