Many people talk that we can delay a period few days by eating a plant in here (its english name is Polygonum odoratum, you can see its picture below). But I haven't tried it yet so that i still doubt its effect. I really want to delay my period around 15 days. Do you guys know the good way for it?
Ah, one more thing i wanna ask, when my period is delayed, time for eggs coming in the next month is changed also, right?
Thank you so much...

There isn't anything you can do naturally to delay your periods other then getting on birth control that is the only way to do so. If you work out a lot that can some times delay stress can to but eating and drinking things nope nothing.

There is nothing you can eat that will still your period or make it late. The only things that make periods come late or not at all. Is birth control getting on the pill or having and IUD that you would have to see a doctor about. Not eating correctly like going days or weeks with every little food to the point your starving yourself will affect that, stress of course, also working out will case it to be late but not 15 days late. There isn't anything out side of chemicals given by a doctor or being pregnant for that matter to push back a period. Its impossible there is no natural way no food or drinks in the world can make that happen.

Honestly there are many herbs that can do that but it's not healthy. Why do you want to delay your period? I'd just go ahead and have it because honestly you could screw your body up a lot more by delaying it.

Thank you for your response.
Ya, normally i really don't want to make it change as long as it is regular...I want to change the day of egg coming...so that i am thinking that if my period is delayed then time for egg coming is changed too. I need it is changed around 15 days.

Whatever you choose to do, good luck. Just be aware it could change your period and throw it way off kilter.

I have never heard that eating plants can delay your period. All I know is stress can delay it. So maybe you wanting to delay it and thinking about it all the time, you will delay it lol. Mine is so random it sucks I never know when "Aunt Flo" is coming to visit!

I'm not sure if this is physically possible. But I heard that eating sour fruits like orange, mandarin, green mango can delay a woman's period.

I have never heard of that before.. I thin one way is to become stressed or something.. If you stress yourself then your period will get delayed. it is not so hard since the world is full of problems.. it works for me.. although i o it unintentionally.
