Question 1

what does it mean when you don't stop bleeding after your period?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy or other: If you normally get regular cycles, but then have a cycle where you do not stop bleeding, the first thing to rule out is pregnancy.  After this is ruled out, the possibilities might include physiologic changes (pcos, thyroid disease) or anatomic changes (polyps, fibroids).  Check with your doctor!

Question 7

how to stop your period for the night?

Accepted Answer

No can do: If you plan ahead, you can alter the way you take birth control pills to control when your period is going to come.  If you're not on the pill or are in the middle of your period, there's really no way to stop it for a night.

Question 8

how to stop your period for a few hours ?

Accepted Answer

Tampon?: I don't think you can "stop" your period for just a few hours and then start it up again. All you can do is use tampon to stop/absorb flow for short period of time then switch back to sanitary napkin or pad. You can manipulate timing of your periods by adjusting how you take hormonal contraception. Talk this over w/your doc. Helps if you explain why you want to do this so s/he can better help you.

Question 9

do u stop growing once u get your period?

Accepted Answer

Not quite: Most of the growth spurt has occurred by the time a girl has her first menstrual period, but she still may  grow another inch or two.

Question 10

what are some ways to stop your period early?

Accepted Answer

Usually with hormone: The most effective way to try and stop a period early is to take hormones, either starting birth control pills or taking Progesterone pills.  And taking hormones doesn't always work.  The period is the lining of the uterus shedding, so if there is still more lining to shed even taking hormones may not get it to stop.
