A member asked:
Can i take a pill to stop my period i got it yesterday?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Once menstruation starts it must run its course because you are shedding endometrial lining, there is no way to stop or reduce your period once it has started. Certain contraceptives prevent endometrial lining formation, if not having a period with bleeding is a goal of yours- you will need to see a doctor for this.
