Any advice for natural ways to delay/stop or at least lessen your period? Mine is out of control lately to the point where swimming on day 1 is impossible and even day 2 is questionable. Of course Im on track to get it right in time for my big meet. My OB gave me a sample pack of BC (Lo Loestrin Fe) as the only option to address this, but Im worried about starting it now and getting all kinds of side effects right before the meet too. I feel like its a no-win situation. I think I would rather try other ways to attempt to delay it or at least lessen it and see what kind of luck I have rather than pump un-needed hormones in my body. Help please!!

:( That can definitely wreck a meet, and has for me.
I don't know any natural solutions, although I've read that drinking TONS of water can delay or lessen it. Birth controls pills are a pretty standard delaying mechanism. (I think it's the progesterone that does it.) It might be a situation of possible side effects vs. debilitating period.
