Using herbs as a morning after 'pill'
Hello there, I'm having a bit of an issue. I got my implanon (birth control) out fairly recently and I haven't had a period from it in quite some time. But after only a week of having it out we managed to have condom problems and the next day I was looking up herbal remedies after finding out the stupid morning after pill is $45!So I found that drinking parsley and/or mugwort tea along with taking high doses of vitamin C would help to get my period come along. It's recommended you don't take it more than 6 days and while everyone seemed to have theirs start within 3 days I still have no period.
Of course while I'm looking this issue up I found that it is likelier to bring on an already late period (there are mixed signals on whether it brings on earlier periods). This is an issue for me since I haven't had a period in such a long time, I don't know when it's suppose to be around! So now I have to worry about being pregnant because of this?
Ugh, please help! I can't keep taking these teas and vitamin c for any longer. How long should I wait before trying them again so I don't harm my body?
