The body of each woman is individual, so the monthly cycle for some is not very stable. In one month, menstruation may begin after 24 days, and in another, after 30 days. The difference in the cycle and, accordingly, the delay of menstrual periods of 2-6 days is considered to be absolutely normal. But there are situations when women try to call monthly by any means and even speed up their arrival. Most often resort to the help of folk remedies, among which the leading position is parsley in the form of decoctions and infusions. How to take them for these purposes - we will describe further.
Useful properties of parsley
The beneficial effect of parsley is due to the presence of vitamins, minerals and essential oils.
It appears in the following:
- improved metabolic processes;
- normal digestion;
- depression passes;
- sputum is better;
- sugar level goes down;
- accelerates wound healing in the oral cavity;
- immunity is strengthened;
- the circulatory system improves;
- inflammatory processes weaken;
- the menstrual cycle is normalized;
- PMS and menopause symptoms subside.
Is it safe to cause menstruation in advance?
The female body is rather complicated, and its main task is to give life to a new person. From 11-13 years old, when the first menstruation appears in the girl, and up to 45-55 years (menopause), the woman’s body completely obeys the monthly cycle. The cycle consists of two phases, follicular and luteal, and generally lasts 21-35 days In the first phase the dominant follicle grows and the uterus is prepared for embryo attachment. The processes last 14 days, after which ovulation occurs (the egg leaves the ovary and goes into the uterus). Sometimes it happens that these processes are delayed, and the main follicle matures on the 16th or 20th day, due to which the arrival of menstruation can be delayed for 1-15 days. If fertilization did not take place, then the egg cell dies.
Did you know? Queen of France Maria Medici highly appreciated the properties of parsley, as she helped her with exhaustion and saved her from attacks of depression.
The second phase begins. The thickened mucous layer, which was necessary for the attachment of a fertilized egg, is no longer needed, and the body gradually begins to reject it. Initially, there is a decrease in the level of progesterone that feeds the mucous membrane. Due to the lack of nutrients, the endometrium gradually weakens and eventually atrophies. The vessels connecting it to the uterus become thinner and eventually break. Bleeding begins, washing away the remnants of the mucous membrane. Together with these processes, an increase in the level of estrogen begins, forcing the uterus to contract and push out all unnecessary. As you can see, hormones are responsible for the onset of menstruation, and any intervention in the cycle can lead, above all, to its failure. In addition, if you cause menstruation prematurely, you disrupt the natural course of the processes, which means that the vessels do not have time to thin out and their premature rupture can cause severe bleeding.
If you are sure that the cause of the delay of menstruation is not related to pregnancy (the test was done), then it is better not to self-medicate, but to see a doctor, because the absence of menstruation may be due to the presence of a cyst, tumor, amenorrhea, ectopic pregnancy interfering with the cycle can have unpredictable consequences. If menstruation is delayed longer than 10 days, you should consult a doctor to get a full examination.
Important! Doctors do not have a common opinion as to whether or not it is dangerous to cause menses. But most of them are inclined to believe that if there is an urgent need for this, then it is possible, but on the condition that the woman will not do this often and will certainly consult with a doctor.
For the same reasons, it is better to refrain from calling the monthly ones ahead of time. Of course, there are situations in life (wedding, vacation, etc.) that nothing should darken, even such a thing as menstruation. But interfering with the cycle can lead to obesity, sterility, amenorrhea, formation of subcutaneous wen, therefore, you should carefully consider what is more important: some event in life or health, before going to call for periods. There are times when it is impossible to cause menstruation at all:
- a delay of more than a month (may be associated with pregnancy);
- if a helix is installed, which can easily injure the walls of the uterus;
- endocrine system diseases;
- hemophilia;
- long-term treatment with hormonal drugs.
How can a plant help with delay?
Parsley is good for the human body, especially for the female.
Due to its rich composition, it acts on the cycle as follows:
- Essential oils accelerate the course of a number of chemical reactions, especially those that are responsible for hormonal changes that stimulate the growth of the endometrium.
- Vitamins and minerals strengthen the immune system, which, in turn, ensures the normal operation of all systems, including the sexual system.
- Vitamin C inhibits the production of progesterone, which increases in the last phase of the cycle. This hormone lengthens the phase, preventing the mucous from completing its cycle.
- Glad substances capable of stimulating the contraction of smooth muscles of the uterus. This allows you to speed up the process of recovery of the endometrium.
- Chlorophyll has a calming effect on the central nervous system, thereby eliminating a common cause of delay - stress.
- The diuretic effect that the plant has, accelerates the removal of fluid from the body, and therefore, the monthly pass faster and less painful. The sensitivity of the nipples also decreases and the discomfort in the mammary glands decreases.
- In general, the plant has a positive effect on the hormonal system, which allows accelerating the arrival of menstruation.
Did you know? In 1931, Robert Frank gave the first official definition of PMS. - "premenstrual tension", and also formulated and explained the reasons for this phenomenon.
