i have irregular period so i tried drink pineapple juice everyday..but it doesnt work..still the same!and i got gastric..damn it!

old ppl say drink cold water not good but my gf seems to be alright with it..

dun take alcohol during period,sleep early,changes frequently,dun take spicy food...these r wat my old ppl told me la..

Basically when period comes to visit you, it only not advisable to drink cool drink only. Gal can continue to eat any food should not be a problem even spicy food. For cold drink, it tends to beku your period blood at gal uterus & it will make the gal more painful when the blood out. If worst, the blood stay at gal uterus & severly might due cancer uterus.

As for irregular period is due to your daily food consumption. Besides it also depend on you personal hormone in your body. Advise is as long drink more water & sleep early is the best for your period process. Make sure after period, buy the tradisional "Pak Chen" herbs. Actually gal everymonth auntie visits will make the gal weak in the long term if you dont take k.

So happy auntie visit to all gal.....

Eh pineapple juice, isn't it to prolong your period?

some of my experience:

eat healthy, more vege and fruits
you can take supplement like EPO daily. It helps to regulate your period pattern and ease the discomfort during period also

more toufu or any soy products during period will reduce the discomfort like cramp. Soy also eases your PMS.

drink alot of water and take fruits(not pineapple)during period.

last but not least, exercise, exercise and exercise...a healthy body will give less problem to us overall...

cheers...

jealous?ask yr auntie to visit u la...u can go visit her also..dun play with gal's big aunty

mm..i dun think pineapple juice helps to bring forward periods but i quite certain that it wil cause bad cramps
few yrs ago i took one small piece of pineapple on the day b4 period and the nex day my stomach cramp like HELL.i cant even stand up straight!
so gals...pls be aware of wat u take during that time of the month ok..

i also heard that drinking gas drinks wil end periods sooner...nvr tried that hehe..dunt dare to try

lol.. no.. i am not ok with taking cold drinks dear.. i dont care oni.. but it hurts like hell if i take especially coca cola on d day before..

wah.. lucky i din eat pineapple.. my mum was cutting up the pineapple on the day 'my aunty came for a visit' lol

Your auntie visit you on Jul 21 2008? 08:46:( ....btw, what is big aunty? Aunty also got big & small? ...i just wana to wish gal to enjoy their auntie visit lolll.....eventually gal should appreciate their auntie visit as is a sign showing your pure woman mahh...rite? Imagine one day you no longer have auntie visit how would your feeling? Its just like guy become impotent & no longer feel a pure guy liao lorrr....
Sorry too loong gas....ciaooo.....

oppss one more things, btw how old are you jianjee..

ow.in fact my real aunty really visited me tat day after i post this up
big aunty as in direct translation from cantonese?? erm..from another prespective,yea..no auntie visit shows that your age of glory is over..but somehow you have lesser troubles rite? guy become impotent is a totally different thing leh..

i'm at the border of underage and 'enough age' FYI

lols.. comon.. we wont miss our periods.. i find it a nuisance >.< imagine if you guys BLEED every month.. for decades.. sheesh.. thats totally different from being impotent or not

Dun take too much cold or soft drinks and try to eat more veggie and fruits if u do not wish to suffer a painful menstrual cramps (in which i had for countless times). I am not sure about pineapple though.

how does eating fruits n vege help??

well... sorta... vitamins are good so you don't feel so tired and you keep your immunity up. Also i find that it makes going to the loo for the big stuff easier when having period cos you don't have to 'push' much and upset the cramps.

Is putting hot water bag on stomach help reducing the pain during period?
Gf always say very pain during her period, almost everyday during period, but i dono what can do....

my period damn irregular one...
but once i feel my tummy damn bloated.. i eat a lot of sour fruits...
then come out.. but super sakit that time.. OVERFLOW

stress only make my period delay..."

yup yup my mum will cook this every month for us. i really really hate the taste cuz its too pahit. i'll onli prefer after i finish the soup n eat the egg haha.

my period never delay but it came earlier every mth. just feel like not worth cuz i might hv 2 periods in a mth. early mth when period bout to end n end of the mth start.

if no period then u should celebrate "Happy Mother's Day"

How to bring forward the time of PMS...??? Eat pineapple really will do??

Drink fanta strawberry cos I did that if my menses late.

Whats fanta strawberry? o_O

For those with period pain try primrose oil. take for long term and in 6 months you will see the effect.

No shitting. my gf had irregular periods and breakouts so i bought her Efamol evening primrose oil(staff price and its the no1 brand in the world)

after 6 months she said that the period comes on time and it didnt hurt that much.

but warning - in between her face was filled with blemishes and pimples due to her body adjusting to the daily intake of the primrose oil. but after 4 months it stopped and skin is flawless.

Hmm.. I actually have this kind of problem.. Once auntie visit, I have to take mc on that day . So cham~ N I have to take pill on first day, cuz I might faint. Recently my cousin taught me that take Bai Feng Wan and Ba Zhen after your period gone. She dont have this problem anymore.

MY aunt told me that her neighbour daughter just had operation and now she don have to face this problem anymore..

donno which one is true =.=

Anyway, I jus know Ba zhen really helps as in a tonic. Coz woman really get weak easily during period time, so better have Ba zhen as nutrition in your body..

what is ba zhen???hm..i just know that when auntie visit..DONT TAKE ANY COLD DRINKS...or u make urself susah only...really..i tried before pain until whole day lying on bed..

Avoid tea drinks! (green tea, red tea, ice lemon tea, teh tarik, teh O ice limau, "yin yong", milk tea, etc)
I just drank one cup of red tea, pain until vomit...

If follow my calculation, my period will fall in between my holidays. So any idea what to eat or drink can bring forward my period??

Pineapple??? Cincau??? Watermelon??

can i ask will period come late? if late then how late can it be? i scared i made my gf pregnant. IM ONLY 18!! T.T i knw dat really "padan muka" cause i didnt use.. i really learnt my lesson. whatever it is ill stil hafta face it.

that really depends..because we are talkin about human body..everyone's body work differently..and how old is your gf? she might be still undergoing puberty...so sometimes late is normal..or early is normal...sooo the way to find out is buy a pregnancy test kit. and if you're lucky, you know next time what to do le.

yeah me too..
but dunno y like that?
last time i not like that..
just this few months only like that

my gf had some white liquid lidat. is dat a symptom for period? O_o

just ask ur gf relax and not too bother bout it..

the white liquid is some discharge from her body..
maybe internally doing some cleaning..

play safe bro...
her 1st time?

Mine's become quite irregular...ever since i started on a stressful job there were times when i was late for more than 3 months ><

Thats why decided to quit after 1+ yr there...getting too erratic d..

Not to mention the effect it has on my moods

I heard that you can get this kind of pills at pharmacy. I used to had it once before I went overseas. (the pills which bring forward the time of PMS)

gosh.. im getting worried. wonder is my gf's period comming. T.T even herself also forgot the previous date of PMS.

cool down men..nothing much you can do accept be ready for any consequences.

learn from this lesson.Hope that god forgive you.
you ejaculate inside?

its outside. but duno got leak inside anot. hmm. going to pharmacist today. @.@

safety first dude...

yea. i learnt my lesson. her period came at last.
i couldnt really sleep the past few days. thinking dat im gonna be father.

good to hear that..practice safe sex..or control if you are confident without helmet.
by the way..u and ur gf 1st time?

next time not ready to commit / responsible DONT DO SEX...

yupps. xD

gunh - wan so serious mea? lol.

so learn your lesson.
she lost her virginity lo...1st time and no experience..
somemore u always scare scare her happy mother and father day..
she will be psychologically pressure one..
later hormone not stable and period late lo..

so..be responsible with wat u have done..dun tarnish other ppls daughter...imagine if this happen to your daughter in the future..then u will know d feeling.

My gf period came late for 2.5 months d, we had no sexual intercourse at this period of time, the last time was may with protection and her period came June..
How come like that?

I know it's old post but in the end did you become father ?
