A member asked:

What are some ways to stop your period early?

A doctor has provided 1 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.
