speeding up my period.
13/f
are there any ways to speed up your period or something so it doesn't last as long? or any ways that will make it less painful? i'd like to be able to go to my school dance this friday but i can't dance if i have cramps [which i usually get] & feel wet. thanks for any advice.

Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
i know its not healthy but since coffee stunts your growth, drink lots of coffee...thats what i do at times when im annoyed, or what i used to do was not eat alot. only a little. thats not too healthy either but mine lasted 2 days which is better than 5.

you can delay it by taking pills but is better if they are taken like a month before the month you want to skip i did that once , and worked but it takes a while to be regular again...anyway you coudl try advil for crapms

There's no one or anything that can speed your period up aside from mother nature, and she gives no one special treatment.
Some birth control pills make it possible to skip periods and make them shorter, but deffinitely wouldnt take effect by this Friday.
But, you can make your period much less painless and less of a hassle than it has to be.
Do you use tampons? If not, I suggest you do. Pad's feel like diapers and are a constant reminder that you are menstrating. You don't even feel a tampon if inserted correctly, and you can totally forget the "joy" of being a woman for a couple hours.
As for cramps, you can take Advil or Tylenol to help cramps, but for other PMS symptoms medication such as Midol or Pamprin might be better. All work well from what I've heard.
For your dance, you might want to wear a tampon and a panty liner for extra protection. Remember to bring plenty of extra's with you, and bring PMS relief pills along as well.
Don't let this ruin your big night. Be happy you have your period, it's a sure sign that you are healthy and maturing properly. It helps me to think of my favorite female singers and dancers, knowing they have to get on stage in front of a ton of people with there periods. They manage, so why can't I?
I hope that helped, and I hope you have a great time at your dance.

The only thing I can think of is to get on birth control, however that does you no good for Friday.
Take Midol for cramps and bloating. Try resting before the dance with a heating pad or a hot towel over your lower abdomen to help with the cramps, as well. Clean yourself frequently to reduce the "wet feeling." That's all I can say to help you in such a short time frame.

Unfortunately there is no way to speed up your period so it'll be shorter. I wish there was. You can ask your mom to take you to a doctor so you can get some birth control. Depending on the pill/patch/shot [the three ways to get it], your period can last up to three days or less. =)
