Hi everyone,
Long time no see--I've been really busy!

I'm going to Burning Man in two weeks. I don't want to have my period during Burning Man. Unfortunately, my period (which has been about every 3 weeks, for years now) has just decided to go to every two weeks. A friend of mine thinks it's stress, and I have had a lot of stress in starting my own business, etc.

I know that if I go to the OB-GYN they'll put me on birth control for a few months. I'd like to save that as a last resort. I don't trust synthetic hormones; and BC makes me lose all my sex drive, and it makes me nauseated and gain weight. None of which is good for BM!

Does anyone know of any naturopathic ways to delay menstruation? I am going to increase my flax oil intake and de-stress myself.

Thanks for any info!
Best,
Andrea
