Menstruation - Controlling the Menstrual Cycle
Certain herbs with a hormonal effect may alter the length of the period initially, either making it shorter or longer, but this effect tends to be unpredictable. Many women find that the length of their period is altered on first taking Vitex agnus-castus, and this herb is used to lengthen particularly short menstrual cycles. But I'm afraid that you cannot rely on this for a definite and predictable effect. If the woman's period is painful or heavy and this is the reason for wanting to alter its occurence with the holiday, it may be better to concentrate on improving the period. Vitex can help with PMS; Black cohosh, Chinese angelica, Ginger and Cramp bark or Black haw can help with period pain; and Lady's mantle can help with heavy periods. All contra-indications should be carefully checked.
