And those of you who take the time to come back and tell us about your experience I thank you. It is good for others to know how this went for someone in the same position.
I have used this to positive results 3 times. Given the lack of access to bc and abortion in much of the US I would like to share this with all of you. Copy it, pass it around, send it to your friends. It is cheap and accessible to all. Obviously if there are any health problems or adverse side effects contact a doctor. My friends and I have used this with very little complications, but I just want to put that disclaimer out there as all bodies are different and yours may react differently then ours. Feel free to ask a natropath/herbalist/physician/gynaecologist.
It can only be used up to 3 weeks after a missed period, but the sooner the better. I've done it within the first week of missing my period and it's always brought it back for me. The best time to start it is on the 1st or second day of the missed period.
You will need:
Fresh parsley (preferably organic...I don't want pesticides in my vagina, so I go organic)
500 mg pills/capsules of Vitamin C (Try not to get pills with Bioflavonoids such as Rose Hips. These PREVENT miscarriage.)
The treatment can last 3 days: DO NOT EXCEED 3 DAYS!! This will work or not within 2/3 days.
1. Insert a fresh sprig of parsley as far as possible into the vagina. (parsley induces contractions, yum) Change every 12 hours. When soft, it may be difficult to remove, but this is not dangerous.
2. At the same time, drink parsley infusions. 2 to 6 tablespoons 4 times a day.
Making an infusion: use 2 1/2 cups of boiling water for every ounce of parsley (If you buy it at the store, minus 2/3 stems (for sprigs) this should be the amount of water used to make the tincture). Add parsley to boiling water, remove from heat and cover. Very important that you remove from heat IMMEDIATELY upon adding the parsley. Boiling the water with the parsley in there will make the infusion less effective. Let it steep for at least 20 minutes (the longer it steeps, the more potent it will be. I usually let it steep for 2 hours.
3. During the 3 days (or until your period starts) take high doses of Vitamin C orally. Ideally, take 500 mg every hour up to 6000 mg. You can continue using the Vitamin C for up to 6 days. Vitamin C can bring on menstruation even 3 weeks after a "late" period. you can begin taking Vitamin C immediately after unsafe sex, or if the condom broke, etc.
If successful you should start to bleed in 2 to 3 days.
Notes:
-You may have cramps (I get 'em bad after doing this) and you can take whatever you usually take for cramps or make a ginger infusion and take that.
-The chances of success are less if you regularly take high doses of Vitamin C
-High amounts of Vitmain C can cause loose stools. No one I know has experienced this, but is has been known to happen.
-Do not use if you have kidney problems.
-Watch for signs of Toxicity Specific to Parsley: Nausea, hallucinations, vomiting, vertigo, hives, paralysis, liver swollen and
painful, urine scanty and darkly colored, and tremors.
I've often noticed that on the second night I start emanating heat. Seriously I feel like a space heater. This is ok, it's just a side effect of the high doses of Vit. C and to me signifies that it worked and I will get my period soon (generally that night/next morning)
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES USE PENNYROYAL. IT IS DEADLY AND DANGEROUS. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, DO NOT DO NOT, DO NOT USE IT!!!
I DO NOT know anything about adding Dong Quai, so DO NOT ask me about it. I don't know.

Answers to FAQ
1. Your age will not affect whether this will work or not. If you are old enough to menstruate and get pregnant then you are old enough or this to be effective.
2. I do not know individual Vitamin C brands. I do not know how time release would work as there is no evidence as to if/how it has worked. I know that Vit. C with Rose Hips has worked, but it is preferential that if you can get Vit. C without Bioflavonoids that you do as this works better. Bioflavonoids should be labeled as such on the bottle.
3. I can't tell you how much an ounce of parsley is. I've only ever seen parsley sold in bunches (which I weighed at more then an ounce) so I just take a few sprigs and dump the rest of the bunch into 2-2 1/2 cups of water. Stores have scales so if you're worried there should be a scale in the produce section or at the very least in the deli.
4. There is no difference between Italian (flat) or curly parsley.
5. Always use fresh parsley.
6. If this doesn't work and you decide to carry to term there will be no adverse effects caused by the vitamin C.

If you are pregnant and you can't keep anything down for a month, then you might have a disease called Hyperemisis Gravidarum. I had it with my pregnancies. It is debilitating. You need to be hospitalized and receive IV treatments. But don't worry, everything will eventually be normal again once you either deliver or terminate.
Today is my third day of taking the vitamin c, I haven't included the parsley.
So far nothing has happened. No cramps, no nothing.
Would it be safe for me to start taking the parsley tonight and then for 3 days aswell as continuing with the vitamin c for those 3 days?
Ok Im 10 weeks pregnant, is there ANY possible way this will work for me? I would have done it sooner but I thought this was what I wanted and now Im having a lot of doubts.
Hi, this is anonymous 17/04/07 17:48
I went out all day and forgot my vitamin c...I also ran out of Parsley. I had parsley by my cervix and took 2 doses of vitamin c in the morning.
When I got to my mom's I consumed absolutely everything I could that contained vitamin C.
I drank about 1 1/2 L of pure Apple juice
took 2 multivitamins with 75mg of Vit. C each
ate a can of pineapples and drank the juice from that
and had 3 cups of apple cider..each with 100% the daily recc. intake of Vit.C
On my way home I picked up more parsley and made and drank some infusion, I also have had 3 more Vit C tablets since getting home 3 hrs ago.
Am I still on track? I hope I didn't royally screw this up.
I have some cramping, and the vit.C is making me pee and poo like crazy lol.
Also, inside my vagina seems swelled and I can tell my cervix is really soft and kinda open..I think.
I've had 2 children, so I know kinda what that feels like. Are these good signs?
Also, can I take vitamin C every half an hour for tonight so I'm not up once an hour till 6am? Would that be ok?
And what the hell can I do about this anxiety? I don't think this is harmful, but I keep scaring myself and get clammy hands and feel like I'm going to have a heart attack! I'm only 21!
Is it just anxiety?
P.s., sorry to post anonymously, but it doesn't let me post otherwise...my name is Jen
would sex help push this method along?
And I've heard of women taking 4/5 tabs of vitamin C at a time, or 2 per hour...is that ok?
HI, this is Jen again. Second post up above this one.
I have been getting a little bit of cramping today and slight back-ache, but my cervix has moved up and back in my vagina.
What does that mean?!?
Alos, if I'm not pregnant and my period is just really late, should this still bring on my period? Or will it come when it comes?
And lastly, should I be worried about infection and not have baths, cuz my cervix is open?
I hope some one else would respond...I feel kinda alone here :(
Hi, if anyone is reading this...
I had unprotected sex. I'm still technically a virgin, as there was no penetration, but no protection was used. My period started on time, but was much lighter than normal. I started with Vitamin C today after reading a few recommendations for it, but no parsley. Should I go out and try and buy some?
I haven't taken a test yet, but I'm worried. I figure, this can't hurt to try. Thank you and the women like you who make this information available.
Hi, I've been on this for 2 days now...I am getting some mild back ache and cramping, which could be a figment of my imagination. I'm going to do it all day tomorrow, but if I took a 1 day break from the vitamin C and started up again the next day, could it still work?
Jen: baths are a-ok. You don't have to take the vitamin c at night, and you should be ok. This will bring on your period if it's just late.
This could still work after a break. You can do it for up to 5 days.
Hi, This is Jen again....I just want to say THANK_YOU THANK_YOU! Last night was a tinge of pink...but I thought a stem poked me and I bled a bit, but no....1w 1d late today, and a period! With barely any cramps and plenty of time till my birthday party yet!
I still don't know if I was pregnant, I guess I'll never know, I'm just sooo happy I don't have to worry anymore! Thank-you sooo much!
hi, my period are not coming. it have been around 5 days now and i have taken pregnancy test which came out to be negative. can this method help me in getting my period. i have been sexually active and have gone under stress too. and after reading all the review i think this method really work. but i have been getting a negative result. please help.
Hi everyone.
Well last week I was a week late and took the vitamin c for 5 days. A couple of cramps and I thought my period was on it's way. But still nothing. Pregnancy tests are positive so I'm definitely pregnant. I'm now 2 weeks late.
I have really bad anxiety and panic attacks. I have no idea how I'll be able to go to a clinic and have an abortion.
After taking a break over this weekend, is there any chance taking the vitamin c starting today again will work?
Been taking 1000 mg Vit C since noon yesterday...also doing parsley springs internally and didn't do infusions, but I'm taking 2000 mg of pure parsley extract several times now. I really hope this works. Nothing yet.
Anon and S: This method doesn't work for everyone. Sorry and good luck.
jm: good luck
this is a great site. thank you so much.
I did the vitamin c 500 mg thing two years ago and it worked great after 4 days. it's a safe and easy way especially for a then college student!
I'm super careful these days but now i don't feel quite right. I'm supposed to get m y period today but something tells me it's not going to come.
I took two pregger tests. one this morning and they were bother negative. However, if i am late i will start the vitamin c again even to just induce a period that i'm waiting for.
I believe it was the Iroquois women that used to use Cedar, Sage and pennyroyal tea to induce miscarriage.
The vit C thing is new to me though. Thanks for posting about this!
Go see you doc before implantation ocurs to be a responsible liberated woman. If they refuse you an early termination make an oficial complaint against them, tell them to go f*** themself & imediately go elsewhere until you get it done that day refuse to leave w/o having it done. Whatever it takes. You will avoid moral conflict if you get it done before implantation.
ps increase your pratection for next time use aded contraception condoms plus spermicide inside & out etc. Fertility is sacred protect yours. Never trust a guy to not get you pregnant.
There is no need for late termination in this day & age. I'm not a pro-lifer. But an embryo is human life albeit from day 1. A foetus is a growing baby - that's just a fact. Common sense should give that as a cut off for abortion. I would never kill a baby. However you sugar coat it, it would be the same. And in most cases for no good reason.
Sorry me above again.
On a sperate note I am a single woman wanting to try to get pregnant in a few months time. God knows we have a time of it, society doesn't aprove of single parents either. I intend to get an internet sperm donor. Failing that trick a guy if I have too.
I was considering taking a vit C supplement lately. Thanks to you I know to not take too much & preferably have it with bioflavonoids in it to encourage a pregnancy. Thanks for the info.
well you know. easier said than done to know that implantation will occur.
You're making the assumption here that everyone on this board has had unprotected sex.
accidents happen.
I know i was on the pill AND used a condom and still got pregnant.
being a woman and having sex as it is already is a risk for pregnancy.
this is a nuts story about my vitamin c experience
So the last time i got a period was March 17th, meaning i completely lost April in terms of ms flo coming.
I automatically thought i was pregnant and to make things more obvious, i had a little spotting and sore breasts and heart burn around the 17th of april but no period. My boyfriend and I always use condoms and i knew none of them broke but maybe there was a lil leak. i don't know really. you have sex, you're always at risk.
I thought i was for sure pregnant. (i was once before 4 years ago and used vitamin c to stop it)
Freaking out, i immediately took two home pregnancy tests and they were both negative. I thought it might have been too early so I decided to wait a week and in the mean time start taking vitamin c just to get started.
500 mg every hour. in the next couple of days the symptoms of pregnancy went away. I felt completely normal like nothing was wrong. I was just still missing my period. I was even going to urinate in the middle of the night and that stopped!!
after still taking the vitamin c for a week and adding parsley i took two more pregger tests and they were both negative as well.
I decided to call my doctor and go in for a blood test and ultrasound etc.etc and i found out today that i am indeed NOT pregnant.
HOWEVER, i still don't have my period. I'm sure it will arrive sooner or later, but could this have been all in my head or do you think vitamin c and parsley made it all go away before it even started? i dont know.
The parsley and vitamin c induce a period, they don't make it go away.
Maybe it's stress or medications or something along those lines.
I had heard of using vitamin c to bring on your period...so when I found myself 3 days late I ran to the store. After two days taking 500 mg of vitamin c every hour, doing urterin massages and pressing on the pressure point on your ankle...I got my period. I danced and rejoiced followed by the worst cramps I have ever had. Reminded me of when i was in labour with my 4 year old. Thank heavens for this site
Thank you so much for this website forum! I am pregnant, and I am attempting this formula. I'm nervous as heck...but here goes. One question... I purchased Ester-C Vitamin C. My husband and I carefully looked through the ingredients and no rosehips. However, in an attempt to do everything right...i read through this forum again, and found one of the comments stating that "bioflavonids" ENCOURAGE pregnancy? Lordy, I'm not trying to get pregnant. Trying to end this pregnancy. Would you know if this is true? My Ester C has bioflavonids. Before I took it, I wanted to make sure it was okay with bioflavoids. Thank you in advance for your assistance and support. I wish I found this site sooner...Thank you so much for this wealth of information.
Hey hon
I read this page and it's very interesting.
I have poly cystic ovaries and bleed only when I take hormones (being vegan this is not my preference as I believe the hormones come from horse urine), just wondering, do you think the parsley or vitamin c might help me bring on a period?
Cheers,
Jessica
Oh ps...
For girls who are doing this:
Check your blood type. I am A- blood type. If you are a recessive blood type and your blood mixes with the DNA of the babies blood during this process (and any regular miscarriage or abortion) your body then makes antibodies toward the baby and can cause spontaneous abortion in future.
This is probably only an issue if you wish to have children with the same partner in future.
It happened to a friend of mine and now she has to have carefully monitored pregnancies.
If you do miscarry and you're a recessive blood type, and you wish to have children with the person in the future you will need to go to the hospital or doctors, within 72 hours of first blood, and have an injection of a preparation called "Anti-D". This will stop your immune system sensitising to your child's DNA.
Jessica
Why did you remove my comment?
Are you a man?
Jesica your last comment- don't you mean if a woman was RH- & wanted to have a child with any man RH+! And there are a lot out there. So the potential for problems would be huge. If a woman RH- carries a baby RH+ & then does this, it creates the opportunity of blood being mixed. They won't even know it has happened. But the next child they carry if it is also RH+ could be at great risk. So I reiterate my point it's better to get the morning after pill within 72hrs of conception- earlier the better. Or get a doc to confirm PG, if you will have to wait to long. Book to have the embryo flushed out properly straight away. They will check to see if it's there when you go in. If you don't take responsible measures you will end up with problems, it's common sense. I would never wish infertility on anyone, even those trying too play God.
If you want to have to face a real abortion of your baby having to be cut from you, instead of just using enough contracepive measures or even taking one pill. Then by all means do this, it's you who will have to face the consequences.
I understand not wanting to take the depot provera shot every 12 weeks. Why should woman have to play about with their fertility. The answer is because we are suposed to be the responsible ones of the species.
If you were exposed to sperm you were exposed to many STDs, CMV etc. caught by bodily fluid contact. No matter how honest a guy is, good guys catch diseases/viruses & die all the time. And HIV etc are usually passed on to women easier.
Thank you very much for this information.

Why would my gender affect why I deleted a sexist comment?
"If you loved someone you'd want to have his baby?"
Fuck that judging statement. There's no place for them in this thread. That's why I deleted your comment.

I'm experimenting with parsley tea thanks to Sister Zeus and this site.
My cycle has been incredibly unpredictable the past few months (since quitting Ortho Evra actually) and I'm trying get things back in order. Not knowing when to expect it makes it impossible to know when something may be wrong.. or to even tell when it should be considered "late". As much fun as it was to only have to deal with it every 6 or so weeks, I'm fed up at this point.
It took a couple of hours but I've read over everyone's comments and enjoy the feeling of.. hmm I don't know.. sisterhood? It's very encouraging.
I don't suspect that I am pregnant (no symptoms and occasional period indicating cramps this week), so I am drinking parsley tea. Yesterday was 2 cups. Day 2: I've had 1 and hope to get in about 4 before bed. Will post results as I get them.
Really good advice someone gave about not boiling the water with the parsley in the cup because it reduces its effects.
One question, I've been leaving the leaves in the cup while I drink it (since they basically hang out at the bottom anyway) and I was wonder what the thoughts are on chewing the leaves at the bottom (sorry if that seems weird but I actually love the green taste). Is it useless? Its a very concentrated flavor but I am uncertain if it is actually a beneficial amount of what is coming out in the tea.
Also, how important are the stems? I've been ripping off the leafy ends and using them alone to make the tea.
Thanks! I enjoy reading and hopefully I can get some good results that can help someone. ♥ and best of luck to you all
I've used vitamin C effectively a few years ago (along with hot baths and abdominal massage). Now, after years of faithfully taking birth control, my scheduled period has failed to arrive (over a week late.) I'm hoping the parsley method will help - thanks for posting this information. For those of you that it does fail for, though, consider doing a medical abortion at a clinic - you take one pill there and one in the privacy of your home, and it's cheaper and much less traumatic than a surgical procedure... Good luck to everyone attempting this!
I am 4 days late and though I have not taken a pregnancy test, I am 100% positive I am pregnant. After searching and searching I've finally found this. I went to the grocery store and got vitamin C, but I could only find parsley flakes! Does this still work?? If not, where can I find sprigs??
Wow, and to think I thought I was completely alone.
I realize this post is over a year old, but I'm amazed that there are others with the same views as mine.
I'm thinking of trying this method, thank you for posting it, and thank you for your strong voice.
hola :)
hey anyone using the Emergen-C stuff as the vitamin C? y'know, the little orange packets they're selling everywhere..they're like a blast of 1000 mg of vita-C, and the ingredients don't list rose hips or bioflavinoids...just wondering because i have a bunch of them and if they're just as good as pills i'd just assume use them...
anyone?
@Anonymous 21:38- I have heard that flakes are okay to use also. Found fresh parsley really cheap at the grocery store. Look near cabbage, greens, etc. Best of luck
Anon @ 11:54 I think that should be ok as long as there's 1000 mg of vit. c in them. I just couldn't imagine drinking that many of them in a day!
AngryPanda: Thank you.
at first when i read this, i was a little skeptical, but desperate. i took plan b, and it was going on a week with still no results. >.< so i had my boyfriend (angel that he is) get the parsley.
today is day one, and i'm still steeping the "tea." ^_^ within about 15 minutes of sticking the parsley in, however, i've been feeling cramps, and there's even been a little spot of blood. in 15 minutes!!! this is sooo amazing!! god bless you for doing this!
and to all anti "pro-choice"-ers, eff you. sometimes, mistakes happen. nobody's perfect, and the body isn't perfect either. anything can happen. so thank you so much for this invaluable information. i'm going to bookmark it and save it forever!!!!
Right on!
Good luck!
litterally 1 minute after trying the parsley method I started bleeding :) I am truely amazedddd.
But how long should it be before I start passing clots?
if i start bleeding after day 1, should i keep doing it for another day or two? (that tea is nauseating. -_-)
I'm not sure, I've never heard of it working that quickly.
You can stop after you begin bleeding.
I have two questions: one, what if I only use the Vitamin C then will it still be effective? also, where can I get this Dong Quai from? I doubt that it is sold at a grocery store! thanks

Hi lost clown, (and scared girls, chicks, and women)
I came across your page a few days ago (yay for google) when I knew that I was preggers (again!!!) (spotting, tender nipples) and I had already been through a surgical procedure for termination in January (I was about 10 1/2 weeks)... because after a bad visit to planned parenthood in my area that first of all the lady there had someone walk in to the room while we were talking and asked if she was done yet, and then they denied me a medication simply because I was "3 days too late" and "our policy is that we don't give this to women over 8 weeks gestation." when in knowing my body, and the day that I got preggers then, I was technically only 5 weeks along because of my cycle...
Although all of the people at the clinic were nice, (a sick twist to the story is that one of my best friends had the procedure done at the same time as me) and overall it was a positive experience, (no protestors etc.) I just couldn't handle that again...
It makes me angry to think that I paid 425 dollars to go to a clinic where the doctors name literally was Dr. Bucher (the nurse pronounced it "Dr. Butcher") sigh.... This is a CHEAP, and COST effective, more natural, and safe way to go.... I wish I would have known about this in December.... I could have saved myself all of that mental stress... all of the guilt and need to try to defend myself while looking at someone I don’t know and tell them why I wanted to terminate... as if that is any of their business.... (tho it is their job the lady I had my counseling with, was preggers at the time, very very preggers. Not to mention that on the ceiling they had a poster of butterflies fluttering in the room…. So yeah....) The valium they gave me was nice tho…
I did not want to go through with that again. EVER. (It was only like 4 months ago too!!)
Although I admit that yes it is my and my partners fault for negating the importance of preventative measures, we do not want a child, (I'm 23.... living paycheck to paycheck)
Solely due to the fact that most of my family suffers from schizophrenia, and I know that my children could pass it on throughout the generations....
For those who have never lived with a schizophrenic mother, I can assure you it is something that you can never quite explain....
The mind numbing stupidity that can ensue, and the constant freaking out and episodes to deal with, nor could I imagine having to deal with the fact that my offspring, could develop the signs... I don't want that!!! I strongly believe that in order to further humanity, sometimes you got to make sure that you can’t contribute to the spreading of those genetics....
So, on the 10th, about 1 day before my period was due, I went to SHAWS and bought the vitamin c (500mg tabs) and I got black cohosh (40mg tabs), then WALMART for
the fresh parsley, and to a natural foods store down the street for the Dong Quai (550mg tabs) The whole lot cost me about $25.00, also I bought some Ginger and raspberry tea.
The first day I took 1000 mg of the vitamin c every hour for 12 hours along with 1 40mg capsule of the black cohosh for 6 hours on the hour, that night I felt like
a solar flare!!! (hot hot hot heat!!!)
The second day I bought the parsley and the dong Quai.
I continued with 1/2 of the vita c (only 500 mg on the hr), and the same dosage of the black cohosh and added the parsley inserts, and the dong Quai (I took one 550 mg capsule of the dong Quai on the hour for 12 hours), and took 6 small swigs from the bottle I put the infusion in every 3-4 hours (total of 4 times that day)
On the third day I kept everything up, and I started to feel a little bloated, gassy, and small barely even noticeable tension in my lower abdomen....
And at the end of the day I took a really really hot bath... then laid down for bed and smoked a bowl.... I am a pot smoker but I have read somewhere
that marijuana is something that you should avoid while preggers (could cause to miscarry?) but I don’t know, seems like an old wives tale to me.....
so i figgered that it could help....
Anyway... As I lay down, I imagined the lining to break down in my uterus and represented the zygote as a butterfly leaving my body exiting through the vagina,
I mentally said goodbye, and as soon as I imagined that, i felt a sort of release of pressure in my abdomen, and shortly after I went to the bathroom and lo
and behold I am bleeding. My cramps are horrible, but by smell I can tell that it is over…. I feel relieved and a little sad, but okay because I know what I did is right.
I constantly thought throughout these few days that this was not going to work, but it did…
I feel a little bit bad for all of the women out there that this simply does not work for, because they now have to make a decision that for a lack of a better word sucks. In the United States, or anywhere else in the world, it makes me sick to see all of the women who are happy and love their child, but you can tell that at some points they just cannot handle it. I have a few friends already who call me all the time telling me that they are “keeping it all together” but by the hesitation in her voice, I can tell that she is smiling through her tears. Or when I know that this mother has no father to help her and she has to figure out how to pay for an apartment and go to school and take care of a baby and work, or this one is a freaking heroin junkie shooting up while smiling at the kid, or this one yells at the kid and every time she looks at it she sees the father who “didn’t want to deal with it’s” face, or that one is getting preggers again to get more welfare, or that one cannot leave the house because her man wont put down the ps2 long enough to watch the baby, or whatever. Grandma gets the (3) kids with this one there, and holy shit you have 6 adults in a small 3 bed trailer with 5 toddlers and a newborn on the way now…. Or she’s working on her second one and she lives with mom. It just makes me upset, because they know that they had a choice, and they were pressured into keeping the child. I’m just talking about the ones who have it this way. I think of all my friends with children, and only one, is actually truly happy. She has support, a good job and the child is well cared for….. I know that I would take excellent care of a child, I would change who I am, ……if I was forced to do it. But knowing me, right now, I would probably lock it in a box. And I know that there is adoption, I know someone who carried a child to term in hopes that it would save a relationship, only to be given up to adoption. I know someone who was sort of a surrogate mother, and she gave her child to her best friend who was infertile. But I won’t allow the genetic disease in me become someone else’s problem.
Thank you all for being brave, and good luck to those who need it. You are not alone. You are not a bad person, it is your body, and it is your choice. Also, if this is something you are reading because your baby died and won’t come out, I am very sorry that you have to deal with that, I know someone who’s fetus died at 5 months and didn’t have it removed until month seven….
and to the people who share this knowledge are freaking goddesses in their own rights...

Hey, thanks for the advice earlier! I have another question though, i have been taking the vitamin C for like 4 days now and nothing has happened except for a little cramping. I have stopped. If I get the dong quai sometime later on this week, then start taking that will I get my desired results...or does it have to be a mixture of both the vitamin C and the dong quai?
If I have another tea besides ginger like green or chamomile tea will that work?
Can I add the black Cohosh to the dong quai or is that too much? thanks
~Lovely
Lovely, unfortunately this doesn't work for everyone. Ginger tea is just for the cramping as ginger works really well for that, I'm unsure about anything else.
I don't know what the dong quai does, as I have never used it or heard about it anywhere but here, so I don't know what to tell you.
Hi! I came across this site as I was exploring options for my unplanned pregnancy.
Today is Wednesday, I began my hourly regime of 500 mg Vit C on Monday night. I took 2 520 mg Dong Quai and used a vibrator to masturbate in order to get my uterus to begin contracting (I have been unable to find fresh parsley). Within 2 hours I see bright red blood. I have very mild cramping. Can I use dried Parsley to make a tea? I'd also welcome other suggestions for safely completing this process
Fresh parsley works better, but it's worth a shot using dried parsley as that should work
Thanks for the speedy response...I found the fresh parsley :-) What is the best way to get it in my vagina?
Just break off a sprig and use your fingers.
You grlz are awesome. Love to you all. And thank you, webmaster, for deleting all the ignorant, cruel idiot comments who storm by with intent to destroy. We don't need them in our lives, and I'm glad you tell them so.
alright I have done all of this. i started last thursday, and it is now wednsday. I have been bleeding since then but it has now slowed to a brown mucus consistancy. I haven't had any abnormal clotting, and had 1 negative pregnancy test. I also started taking this regamin at 5 days after my missed period. Have a passed the placenta and all??? my uterus is still really tender. helpppp :(
-FL
If you were bleeding all ready there's no need to start the regimen again. You should be fine.
i was wondering, would it make a difference if i got italian parsley? that was all i was able to find! will it still yield the same results? thanks!
-lovely
That will work just fine.
how many sprigs equal an once of parsley for the infusion?
I pull out 2 or 3 stems to save for sprigs to insert and through the rest into the infusion
i have the chewable kind of vit C. will that make a difference? thanks for all your help! you are really quick in responding too! that is good, because ppl have really important questions to ask you know! love ya and the recipe! let you know my results in a few days! wish me luck!
-Lovely!
It doesn't matter how you get the vitamin c, just as long as you get it.
hey, if I don't take the infusion, will the process still work?
I have been taking the parsley for a day and i haven't had any cramps yet.
Will I have cramps before it starts to work?
I have been secreting a lot and it is not blood, just secretions of white fluid, do you know what this means?
do you usually feel sick for a while after doing this? I started this on the 10th, and started bleeding on the 10th. I had cramping and the whole shabang. my period lasted for a week, but now I feel sick. I feel like I'm going to thorw up constantly, I have pains all over my body, and I'm lightheaded.
Is this related to this, or do I just have a virus?
It should be unrelated to this. I've never heard of anyone being sick after this.
I don't know what the white secretions mean...you usually have white secretions when you're ovulating.
Hi Everyone,
Not sure if it's been said already (I think I saw something up there about mifeprostone), but I have a great website for those of you who live outside the US! I live in Ireland and abortion is illegal here so I was desperate to find something that would work. I found a website called www.womenonweb.com that will send you the tablets of mifeprostone and one other medicine (can't think of it now). It costs around 70 dollars.
You take the pills orally and then just wait...I did have severe cramps/diareha/nasuea but it was worth it!
Hopefully that helps someone, it's always a tough situation and thank god for blogs like this to help us girls out! Viva la pro-choice!
xx
Thank you for this, it sounds great!
I have stopped doing the procedure on the second day and nothing happened. I was having white secretions after, but now its starting to turn brown but there is no blood yet and I have no cramps. Do you know what the cause is, should I start to take the vitamin C again? Thanks for all the help!
so what does the white secretions mean in comparison to ovulating?
I don't know what the brown means.
White secretions generally mean you are ovulating.
I am putting all my faith into your method, but I have a few questions. First of all, I have always been soooooo pro-life, until I found myself in this situation, and have changed my tune.
I had sex on the 13th and 14th...ovulated on the 15th (Ov pain) and again on the 17th. I thought I wanted to be pregnant, but then I got freaked (40 with an 18yr old, 7 year old and miscarriage 6 months ago). It didn't dawn on me until the 73rd hour that Plan B was available (I know you are supposed to take it within 72 hours). ANyway, from the 1st time I had sex til the Plan B it was 4 days...I've heard you can take it up to 5 days but success cuts in half.
So, since I wasn't sure if I took it in time, I started taking vit C after reading your site a few days ago when looking for my options. My period isn't even due for another 5 days.
Do you think with the Plan B and already taking vitamin C that I'll be ok? And, do you think I should quit taking the vitamin C until I see if I actually am pregnant? I was just trying to prevent. If I dont start the day I"m supposed to, was going to start with the parsley.
What do you think? Ease my mind here...hahaha
Thanks for your site...the thought of a clinic scares the hell out of me, and also makes it more "real", I guess. This way seems to have so much more control and less scarey.
A lot of people have changed their mind about abortion when they find themselves in this situation, it's not just you.
Taking Vitamin C after sex does cut down on your chances of being pregnant. It's ok to be doing the vitamin c right now.
I would wait to use this recipie until your period's late. Good luck.
Hi All!
I posted a few weeks ago...
I was 7-8 weeks preggo. I started with plan described above. 10,000 Vita C for 11 days, Parsley inserts and infusions here & there, Dong Quai for 7 days (4 capsules, every 4 hours during the day). On the 11th days (just hours before my scheduled NON-SURGICAL procedure) I took 1,000 mg Vita C and 4 525 mg Dong Quai capsules and used my vibrator to orgasm. ORGASMS CAUSE YOUR UTEROUS TO CONTRACT. When I woke up from my short nap I was bleeding and began to pass blood clots. I collected the first few clots in a freezer bag and my ob/gyn confirmed a miscarriage.
Thanks to Sad Clown for creating/monitoring this forum.
My advice to others is to stay calm, this is not a fast process and to use your internet skills to research your current situation and options.
Thanks for posting your story.
And btw, it's not sad clown, it's Lost Clown. ;)
Hello. I started the vitamin C already but my period isn't due for a nother few days. Should I go ahead and start the parsley or wait? Also, you said not to do the vit c more than 6 days...should I stop and start back on day period due?
Has anyone had success with Plan B if taken after the 72 hours? I took it closer to 5th day. But, I want to do this too. I saw previous post with same situation, but no answer about Plan B and was wondering if i shuold stop vit C til later. Anyone?
Renee
You can do the prsley now. I usuaally wait until I miss my period, but this recipie will only induce your period sooner. I don't have stats on Vitamin C, but I'm sure the Planned Parenthood website does.
Hi lost clown!!! And hello to everyone else who can help me with this problem that I am facing. So, my ex fiance' and I are expecting our first child in November of this year. I am in a six year law program with a year left when we learned of this. We were ready to move forth with this until I came home and found his things gone. A note that said "I dont want this kind of life." I am three months and have no money for an abortion...Is there anything that I can do that will induce a miscarriage?!? Think about it...please let me know. Thanks!
Well I have to say that this is a very good thing you're doing for women all over. I'm proud of your initiative! I still have over a week until I'm supposed to get my period, but I've started taking vitamin C. yesterday I took it with rosehips b/c I couldn't get to the store, but now I have pure vit. C. Today I started inserting the parsley and I'm about to start with the infusions. I made it significantly stronger than what the recipe said, but my own herbal knowledge tells me that it's not gonna hurt me to do that! I'll keep you posted, and again, thank you SO much for this blog!!
Anon: If you have $70 (cheaper then most abortions) someone posted this info in a comment:
I found a website called www.womenonweb.com that will send you the tablets of mifeprostone and one other medicine (can't think of it now). It costs around 70 dollars.
Good luck, I'm sorry that happened.
Everyone: I have to take my computer in for repairs, but I will check the comments as often as possible. Please bear with me as I will not be able to respond immediately, but hopefully I will be able to respond within a day or two.
Thanks lost clown for all the great info.
I just checked the womenontheweb.com site and it is only for women in countries where abortion is not safe/available. Which does not include the US. Unfortunately! I wish Mifeprex was more readily available here, but with so many pharmacies refusing to even stock Plan B I think it's going to be a long time...
I'm trying the herbal route. Wish me luck!
hi thanks lost clown for your help......but the website is no good for me....I wanted to ask you or anyone who is reading this Have you guys heard of castor oil to have a miscarriage???
I'm 17 and in deep trouble. I tried this method (only vit c though) just a few months ago with success within 3 days. My last period was really wierd, it was 2 weeks early for some odd reason. I should have gotten my period yesterday but I had unprotected withdrawal sex right around what I'm guessing was my ovulation time (doh! stupid me!) I began taking 1000mg vitamin c pills about 8 times daily 4 days ago. No luck yet, but I'm hoping this is just another irregular period. Please if anyone is out there keep me in your prayers or wishes as I am for you!
Thanks!
Good luck. *fingers crossed*
Ok...can I just say...."WHEEEEEEEEEEEEW!" Relief, Relief, Relief!
I was the one who had done Plan B too late, and tried this method before my period was even due....well, I don't know if it was this method, or if I wasn't relaly pregnant, but either way...Aunt Flo arrived! Yee Haw.
I must say tho, that I was doing 1000 mgs of C, the infusion, and then did the whole parsley thing...which I might add was quite scarey after leaving it in overnite and having to panicly fish for it the next morning because it was so far up in there...BUT, by that evening, Aunt Flo arrived. Whatever it was, I'm thankful.
You made me look at things differently. It's true that you never know what you will do until you are in the situation yourself, so don't judge! I was strictly pro-lifer, but now....I'm thankful I had a choice...and wish that on others as well :-)
Good luck to all, and thanks, Lost Clown

Well today would be my fifth day on the vitamin C and 2 days after my missed period but luckily this morning I woke up with my period! I THINK this time it was just an irregular schedule, but like i said before a few months ago it really was the vitamin C. Thank you lost clown! When I'm in college next fall I'll be sure to advise my friends to this page in case of emergency (which I assume there will be at least one case, but it WON'T BE ME AGAIN!)
Live and learn.
Ok, I'm still waiting for this to work... it's nice to see the recent successes posted. But I just started the parsley last night so we'll see. Also, am I missing something, or why couldn't you just tie a little string around the parsley sprig like a tampon so you don't have to fish it out? I did that and it just pulled out with the string, no problem.
Joyce,
haha that is brilliant! Hopefully it will work for you. Just relax because stress can just delay it even more. Good luck!
Ladies can anyone help me with getting my period back .. iam a new mom and i didnt get my period i was supposed to be due for period on this month 25 usually i get 7 days late to the date expected so i waited but till now i havent got and iam tensed cause it costs me $600 :(( i cant afford it again ... previously before my second child i got abortion in hospital and it cost me $700 now i need to pay 600 and rest covered in insurance ... but 600 is too much for abortion .. please help me get my period back by using any non priscription medicine or natural way please please please
hi i cant see reply to my previos post can some one tell me where to find it please
Yes/No on Castor Oil...I have heard of it being used to INDUCE labor before. Have you tasted it ?!?!?! YUCK! This method* worked for me and I was almost 2 months pregnant. The Vit C & Dong Quai caplets were tasteless...
PS Be patient because my process took ELEVEN (11) DAYS!
I posted on the 29th and here I am with a follow-up. I have bad news and I have good news. When I started the regimen, I was almost a week ahead of schedule for my period, but I was concerned, so I went ahead with the vitamin C and parsley. Bad news is, this method does not work for me (or at least not in the time period specified in the recipe). Good news is (and this is awesome news), my period showed up on schedule! So I really had nothing to worry about in the first place, but it was so nice to know that there's a whole slew of other women being helped by this method!! Lostclown, I know we've all said this, but you did an incredible thing with this post. Thank you.
hi all! Hey Sinnamon, or lost clown, about the Dong Quoi, where can I get it, how much does it cost and finally, how am I supposed to take it. Ohh one more ? what are the side effects. Because I am so far along.
Hello Im about ten days late and have an IUD, I went to the Dr. last friday and they tested me and say that I was not pregent. I would like to try this because I still have not started. think it will be ok with the IUD?
Hi, this is for Andrea..I read your comment about a massage oil to bring on periods..I was wondering if you could email me the website?? email me if you can at xbutterflykissesx6@hotmail.com..Or if you could post it on here?
Thank you!
Its me again..Alright well, i was wondering what was in Vitamin C that causes you to have a period? v See me and my boyfriend just had a baby girl almost 2 months ago..And just recently started having sex again..And see we did it twice without protection and just with him pulling out..And now im freaking out!! thinking i could be pregnant again or something..Because you think i would have learned my lesson..im desperate! I'm not supposed to start my period until the 15th of this month (this being my first real period after the baby) and i know i have about 1 week until im supposed to start..So im considering taking the vit.C now.
i have these vitamins here that have
vitamin A (beta Carotene) 5000IU
VITAMIN C (ascorbic acid) 500MG
Vit E 50 IU
vit B-2 10MG
Zinc(gluconate) 25MG
L-gluthanione 5MG
Bilberry Leaf 175mg
L-Cystein 100MG
Selenium 25MG
Does anyone know if any of these other ingredients would get in the way of the 500 MG vitamin c? or inhibit rather than induce my period? Please lemme know a.s.a.p !!! BTW thank you as well Lost Clown for all the info!
Jessica that should be fine.
I just bought Vitamin C to end my pregnancy. I am only a couple days late so I'm starting this early on for better results. My only problem is the only Vitamin C I found has 500 mg of ascorbic acid, and 5 mg of Rose Hips. I was wondering if the Rose Hips of that dosage would cause a negative effect or if you think I should take the Vitamin C anyways.
Thank you.
The Rose Hips make it less effective, but I used them once in a pinch and it worked for me. Obviously if you find vit. c without rose hips it'll be better, but that can work.
if i boiled an infusion and saved it in a bottle, would it still be effective a few months later? or would i have to boil a new infusion?
i started taking the vitamin c (500 MG)yesterday..and i was wondering when you said take it up to 6,000 mg does that mean when i take it every hour like now im taking it from 11am to 10 pm ( that adds up to 6000 mg) do i stop at 10 at night and start again the next day at 11 am? (is that what you meanwhen you say take 6000 mg a day?)
di-that should be ok.
Jessica-yeah you stop taking them at night. I always have and it works for me.
Thank you so much! you don't know how much i appreciate this :)
i don't know if this will help any ..But we have 3 books here with important information about Vitamins and herbs..and of course before i started taking the black cohosh and vitamin C i looked up info about it (my family take alot of vitamins and herbs for their problems)and i read that it is better to take vitamin c in smaller portions like 250mg and 500 mg rather than 1000 or more because the more you take at once the less that is absorbed..So when taking the 250 mg or 500mg you get the full 100% absorbed but when taking the 1000 mg you get maybe 79 to 80 percent absorbed
Hello,
I enjoyed reading ur comment, but i would like to know if it's possible to abort a 13 week pregnancy by using vit. C and herbs?
Thank u all.
I don't think so, but if it was me I'd give it a try anyway. Good luck.
Do u suggest any another way in which i can abort my pregnancy at home?
Herbal methods can be deadly, so I wouldn't suggest trying any of them.
oh my gosh I'm so glad I found this site. I just started the method and hope it'll work.
i just found out I'm pregnant and there's no way I can go through all of it again. I'm already a single mother and have recently realized I don't want any more children. I was using birth control and didn't expect this.
*crossing fingers*
thank you for your help! :)
ok is Two weeks after my missed period too late to use this treatment?
No, up to 5 weeks after a missed period
i took the vitamin c every day for 5-6 days up to 6000mg and suddenly i got a cold..is that normal?
ok, so i had a few mishaps and thought i had resolved this by taking 4 bc pills the next morning. i then went on the pill, but without having my period first. i am on the third week of pills and i started getting incredibly emotional. so i took a home pregnany test and the second line came up faintly... indicating pregnancy. i came across your site and im going to start with the vitamin C... but has anyone heard of eating fewer than X number calories/day working? or doing lots of crunches? i just looked up costs of abortions and it was close to 1000K... yikes.
oops. i meant 1K... or 1000 :)
On the 15th i was supposed to start my period. I began taking the Vit C up to 6000mg a day for 5 days before my period and stopped because i came down with a cold (is that normal?) so i didnt take the vitamins on the day before my period r the day of..And then i began taking the vitamins the day after my period was due(the 16th) along with dong quai (550 mg at first) and then 1100mg every 4 hours..And nothing! ive done this for 3 days..I as well started the parsley things with the infusions and sticking it inside me..Is there anything i should know? someone give me any sort of a suggestion! because im freaking out!i was wondering if it has anything to do with me just having had a baby?
It doesn't work for everyone...getting sick is not a side effect, unless it's loose stools or diarhhea, which is unfortunately a side effect. I don't know what to tell you except good luck.
I might have gotten it from a family member. See i havnt had any of the side effects. But yeah, thank you for the info though! i really appreciate it. Is it possible that my period could be delayed due to me having my baby april 15th?? anyone?
Jessica - have you taken a pregnancy test? I didn't see that in any of the posts unless I missed it. I think your period could definitely be late due to having the baby in April. Your body doesn't always get back on schedule right away. But you should take a test to be sure. And BTW, it unfortunately didn't work for me, I had to visit good old Planned Parenthood last week for the Mifeprex... I don't know how much it costs other places, but I'm in the Midwest and it was $400 and I think the surgical one is $600. Plus if your income is below certain limits they will reduce the price. Good luck everyone...
hi! i'm due to start my period on the 1st, i'm just worried i may be pregnant. would you recommend starting this a few days before my period is due or is that far too risky?
i live in a country where abortions are illegal, where it is difficult to get a morning after pill and where plan b is unavailable. thank you for this, you may have saved my life. x
is it ok to use coriander instead of parsley?
Yes, you can start it early. If it doesn't work you can go to www.womenonweb.com and order RU486 (the abortion pill; they ship to countries where abortion is unsafe/illegal).
No coriander DOES NOT have the same properties as parsley. You MUST use parsley.
lost clown: thank you. you really have helped tremendously. i hope it works. x
(p/s: sorry, i keep deleting comments, i can't have anyone know about this and trace me. sorry again. xo.)
No problem, the comments are now gone forever.
I hope it works too, but keep that website in mind if it doesn't work, they have scholarships available if you can't afford it. Good luck, you're in my thoughts.
Thanks again!
The only problem is that the medication is banned out here, so people could get in a whole lot of trouble. I reckon I'm safe..more or less, I just don't want to risk anything at all. This is more of a pre-emptive measure than anything else.
Thank you so very much for everything. I shall be checking back often, I really like your blog- I've been reading it for a few days. Perhaps one day, I shall muster up the courage to comment properly :) Thanks, XO
I'm sure they take every precaution as a lot of countries they serve are like yours. I'm still crossing my fingers for you.
Thanks again! I'm just hoping it isn't necessary! :)
Karma can't hate me this much! ;)
I can't seem to get my hands on any parsley. Would ginger tea suffice? Is there anything else I can use instead of parsley?
I'll keep trying for parsley!
Ginger tea is to reduce cramps. Parsley has special properties that make it induce contractions, so only parsley will work for this.
I am not on birth control because I do not (usually) have sex. Last time was about year and a half ago. I had an accident last night where a condom broke. Bad luck for the first time in over a year. The thing is I can't get pregnant (i would get disowned) and it happens to have happened during in my fertile time. Would it be a good idea to start the Vitamin C now, or wait to see if I end up being late?
You can start taking Vitamin C immediately after a risky encounter.
should the infusion be stored in the refridgerator or just room temperature?
by the way thank you sooo much for posting this info. i really had about given up hope when i just kinda ranomly found this website. i am so thankful & i really hope this works for me!!!
store it in the fridge.
Good luck
hi
to start, thank you for this site, you've been keeping me company over the past very stressful 4 days.
I've had to stop the parsley. I used the inserts and drink but it's given me terrible thrush. I'm still taking Vit C as well as dong quai four times a day.
I have some gripey feelings and the odd cramp but no sign of spotting or blood. does the one come before the other?
thanks again
ann
Ann-
Cramping is usually a good sign and comes first. *fingers crossed*
hey its the anonymous that asked about how to store the infusion checking back in again..a little over 2 days into the treatment (earlier today) it worked! thanks so much you have no idea how much relief i am feeling right now & how thankful i am. i wish i could actually hug you right now haha
I'm so happy it worked for you. You put a smile on my face. *hugs back*
wow thank you so much. i hope this works! <3
Hey there,
Does it matter if you use effervescent vitamin C tablets? The kind you drop into water?
Haili-good luck!
Anon-it shouldn't
i just started the vitamin C tonight, its 500mg but contains rosehips. will i be ok taking this for the first night/morning? also will sticking anything else up there besides parsley do the trick?
i just posted..
not to be gross. but i've also noticed whiteish milky residue in my underwear.. any reason?
~Lee
Anon-you should be ok, but I'd try to get regular vit c as soon as possible.
Lee: that's actually a normal thing to have happen. It occurs sometimes when you're ovulating, etc. It can happen at any time during your cycle, it's completely natural and not a side effect. If it was not white or clear then there's a problem.
i insterted the spring, im not sure if i did it right?
and will the vitamin c upset your stomach at all?
it could...the most common side effect is loose stools
yeah, but if i thought i was pregnant, should i be ovulating?
lee
No you wouldn't, unless your'e not pregnant, but like I said it's normal to have white or clear discharge at any time. It's only a problem if the discharge is not white or clear. You're fine, it's just your body doing its thing.
i dont want to be pregnant.. how do i know if i was ovulating or not?
ps - how do i know were to put the parsley on my cervix, how do i do that..
sorry for all these questions..
Lee
lost clown, thank you.
I've been scared out of my wits. Last month I had "sex" for the first time with my boyfriend (we started to, but then decided to stop and wait until we could have safe sex), and even though he didn't come in me I know his pre-ejaculate did. Last week I only spotted on the first day of my period and nothing more, which was very unusual. I did not take a pregnancy test, but something just didn't feel right. It might have just been an irregular period, but since I've never had an irregular period until now, it felt too uncanny to be mere coincidence.
And so it was a blessing that I came upon this blog. I know that I would still have a home with my family if I had been to become pregnant, and my boyfriend wouldn't have left me, but my family is low income and I do not have the finances to follow through the regular motions.
And so I began your regimen of 500mg an hour for 12 hours (most of the time) six days ago today. After the first two days, I began drinking the parsley infusions for three days. Just this morning, I began getting my regular heavy flow. I cannot tell you how relieved I am. Frankly, I've never been so happy to have cramps and bleeding. xD Whether it was a shy period or not, it's as right as rain now.
Thank you so much for your help! My boyfriend and I will be much more careful in the future.
Just when I was certain that the vit c and parsley wouldn't work, I began bleeding.
It took 8 days of vit c (started at 500 mg per hour and then went to 1500 mg every 3 hours) and parsley on days 3,4 and 5. I had intermittent cramping, but nothing significant until last night.
I began the vitamin c and parsley when I was 3 days late.
Thank you for your advice!! I am so happy that it worked for me!!
so ive been posting over the last few days. im not sure if i was ever really pregnant, but after 3 days or so of popping vitamin c pills every hour and stressing, i awoke this morning with a period. at least its what i hope it is. theres bad cramps as usual, and a regular flow so far.
i just wanted to thank you lost clown for posting this. you and everyone who has posted on here have kept me company for the last few days. you are very brave to put yourself out there the way you have and i have beyond respect for you. <3 thank you so much.
I'm so glad I found this blog.
I had unprotected sex on the 25th of June. (which is unfortunatly during my "peak" fertility days). My period was due on the 2nd of this month (July). I had EC of course, but something doesn't feel quite right. Since missign my mensies, I've been on parsley tea (to hopefully start some type of blood flow), but I had no clue that vit C could be an aid.
I have that same feeling I had when I kind of knew that I was pregnant with my first. (or could it just be paranoia). It's not that I can't afford another child, I just have all the kids I planned on (a grand total of 1! lol). I just graduated college, and started my career. I have a loving son and I just don't want any more children.
I will be starting your method this evening (when I get away from work and to the store to buy the vit C, along with taking a pregnancy test). Wish me luck!
Thanks so much for posting that entry, you have been such a great help.
Sorry to bug you with my woes, when I fould your blog, I was compelled to share.
Thank you so much!,

I am a wife and mother of a child who just turned 3. I am in a grad program and we are trying to get ahead financially. I did and at home and went to the doctor; both came up postitve. I have no idea when I would have gotten pregnant because I was on depo prevera and it stops your flow. About 2 weeks ago I went to a party, ahd two drinks and got really sick. A big blood clot came out and the doctor said their is a small chance I could have misscarried already. Still I am not taking any chances. I read your article and I started taking 1000mg of Vit c once every two hours. I also started the parsely inserts. If I am more than a few weeks pregnant what are the chances of this working?
Does it really matter what kind of parsley you use?
The only kind i could find that was parsley was called "curly parsley"
i really hope it doesn't matter. haha
oh and when i have to put the parsley in my vagina....is anything going to smell weird and do i have to put the whole thing, stem(little stick thingy, however you call it) and all? haha. Weird question, but whatever.
And i couldn't find any organic parsley but i bought this spray that can remove pesticide and dirty stuff. Is that okay as long as i wash it and all?
Please reply.
Thanks.
Hey, This is Bonnietta again. Sure enough, when I took the pregnancy test, it came back positive. I started the treatment soon after. It was on it for a total of 2 ½ days.
And it worked! OMG it worked!
Over the weekend I did what Lost Clown advised and I experienced mild (extremely mild, almost barely noticeable.) cramps, they milder than my normal period cramps. If I had to complain about anything, it would be the lower back pain, it wasn’t that bad though. I didn’t have any loose stools in reaction to the vit C, only bad gas! (lol). This morning, during the removal of the parsley. I noticed a pinkish/brownish clot attached to it. Later on in the morning I started bleeding.
Phew! I’m so relived.
I’m going to continue the vit C though. Just in case.
Thanks so much, you don’t know how much you helped me!
I don't know what the chances are if you are a few weeks along. If you haven't missed a period yet it has a very good chance of working.
m-it doesn't matter what type of parsley you use.
Hi all! I have read everything that you all have had to say. I have to say I am trying this method because my own now x-boyfriend wanted to get my pregnant and was sneaky and spiteful in his ways I am not going to tell you what he did all I am going to say is I am pregnant. I already have two sons ages 7 and 9 I work and go to college and with those two t is hard enough. I am praying that I do miscary as bad as granny and who ever else may think it is. But I am trying to support and make a life for the children already living with me and most certinaly can not afford another. Abortion here is 340$ and thats crazy. Thanks so much for your help and posting this I hope it works for me keep your fingers crossed for me and I will for the rest of you whom are in a bad situation. Bless you for your help!
i am not computer savy so i hope this works, i need help. i am preg and dont want it but my husb is overjoyed. i want it gone. i cant help it, i dont want to be preg anymore... sickness, vomiting, nausia, depresion, just not plesent. and i dont want to be a mom. what do i do. i read your post about the "naturally induceing" but i read it to late and i think i am more then 3 weeks from my missed period. i am more like 8 weeks. i dont know what to do and i feel so alone. i am in a family of pro-lifers and really dont know what to do. the thought of having this baby is so discusting to me, but i get ride of it and my husband finds out, he will not love me anymore and he is the love of my life. does this natural methond work on 8 weeks.i dont know who else to turn to... i cry everyday all day long please please please help the thought being a mom is just to horrific...what do i do?
it is me, not computer savy...i just wanted to know... when your drinking parsley dring do you use fresh of dried parley and at 8 weeks is there anyone that this did not work for and the baby turned out to be deformed or retarted..
please answer asap
me, not computer savy again. i have more questions...how long is the bleeding. and since i have to try and hide this from my family/husband does it actually look like a misscarage. at 8 weeks will i see the baby bleed out of me. and will i have to go to the hopital?
ps..from me anonymous 17:48 PLEASE GET BACK TO ME ASAP.. I DONT HAVE MUCH TIME LEFT
fresh parsley. It shouldn't hurt the embryo if it doesn't work b/c it's only parsley and vitamin c and not something poisonous.
I don't know if it'll work at 8 weeks, and it's still a clump of cells so I wouldn't worry about that.
ok, i did the vitamin c and parsley and got my period. it was a few days late. i took a pregnancy test today cause my period ended yesterday and it was negative. i dont feel right still. is there sitll a chance i could be pregnant.???
I think you should be fine.
My LMP was 6/16/07 and I had intercourse on 6/21/07. I took a HPT on 7/12/07 (period not due for several more days) and it was positive.
How many weeks along would I be considered?
I started the Vitamin C-the bottle says pure vitamin c, asorbic acid, no rosehibs but it does have some cellulose. I took almost 3000mg already today.
I bought some parsley on my lunch hour and I am going to try brewing some tea once I get home.
Anyway, if someone could tell me how far along I would be, what the chances are of this working, along with any tips? I really need this to work.
Also, my period isn't technically due for a few more days, although I'm certain I'm pregnant, tender breasts, positive test, etc. Is it ok to start so early?
Thanks...Samantha
it is me, not computer savy. i am in my 2nd day of parsley/vitamin c and so far all i have is the loose stool. i am scard this is not going to work. can anyone offer some comfort to someone who is tring this at 8 weeks almost 9. also if i dont get the sweets tonigth (on the 2nd night) does that mean it is not working?
Samantha: you count back to your next period (b/c you can't be sure of the timeframe) so about 3 weeks. If you haven't gotten your period yet you started early, so if this is going to work you have an excellent chance. (This does not work for all people, but it seems to work for most)
Anon: you may not overheat, but that's just a possible side effect. I'm really not sure that it will work that late into the pregnancy, but I'm thinking about you. Good luck.
it is me, not computure savy, thankyou lost clown youve been the only one here for me these last few days. i only wish i would have seen the site sooner. i am so alone and feel very scard does any of the readers live in the pheonix,az area? i could really use someont to talk to
Thank you Lost Clown for your website and your considerable time and energy here.
I tried this and it did not work for me, I was not sure when my period was until after I had done it. I ended up being 2 weeks off. So by the time I started the vitamin c, I was pushing the limit already.
I started with 1000mg every 2 hours for 12 hours the first day, the second day, I emptied about half out and was on 250mg every hour for 12 hours, the third and fourth days I was taking 1000mg per hour, and on the 5th day I found the tampon receipt and realized how late I really was and the pills started to make me ill, so I just stopped and went ahead and made an appointment for a surgical abortion. I waited a week to be sure all of the vitamin C was gone etc.
On another site, it says to get up during the night and take the Vitamin C to keep the levels high,and also that you can do this for up to 12 days, and I believe that this would have worked for me had I started earlier, and taken it for longer than the 4.5 days. I also kind of suspect that althought I had pure vitamin C that maybe it was not as strong as it could have been. I could find no date on the bottle.
The surgical abortion was not bad at all, it's a lot of waiting at the clinic, I think they keep you there waiting so long to make sure that you go long enough without eating, or drinking anything. I was given a shot in the arm and went to sleep and knew nothing unti it was over. The staff at the clinic was so much more professional and caring than what I have seen with prenatal care and labor and delivery dr.s.
I had a really bad delivery experience with my last child, one hour before I delivered they were trying to give me sleeping medication and telling me that I was just hysterical, my eyes were so bloodshot I guess from blood pressure, that I really think something was damaged as I cannot see to drive at night anymore, if I had not been able to reach the buzzer on the bed, I would have delivered alone in my room,at my 6 weeks checkup the nurse practioner had to remove stitches that should never have been put in?? So I just do not trust the physicians in my area enough to go through another labor and delivery with them. ASAP I am going in for a tubal, which I was supposed to get after the birth of the last child, but it was a premature birth and they said I had not signed papers long enough in advance so they were afraid I would change my mind??? I think we would have a lot fewer abortions if the health care professionals would start listening to women when we tell them we want to be sterilized!!!!
I want to say too that if you are reading this because you are pregnant and afraid, you should stop and realize how many women after you will be pregnant and afraid too, and vote accordingly to keep abortion legal and safe for them. We are very close to losing Row Vs Wade, If this happens websites like this one won't be here, one more supreme court justice appointment by a pro life president will likely do it. Hopefully no more justices will retire before this term ends, but more than ever it counts that we get a pro choice president elected. If you are not registered to vote, get registered to vote and then VOTE! Vote Democrat, the republican party wants to place every restriction possible on birth control, and abortion, and then cut funding for healthcare for poor women!
I also want to say that I got pregnant this time because I did not realize that sperm can live up to a week after entering the female, it just hangs around in there and waits for ovulation.
Sorry this is so long.
it is me not computer savy, omg it sounds like anom 18:54 wasnt even as far along as me and hers did not work, what am i going to do... has anyone tried ibprofen i herad somewhere that preg should not take it cuz it interfews w/ the uterus linning...or does anyone have a method of opening/cutting thru the cerviex. you know just making it open so that the bleeding starts. if you used a wire hanger will that work....!!!!!! please help
Please please PLEASE DO NOT USE A COATHANGER. Check with clinics in your area. Trying to cut it out yourself can END IN DEATH.
DO NOT TRY TO CUT YOUR CERVIX.
It's me again 18:54, I was about 7 weeks from my last period when I stopped, I thought that I was just on the first day of my missed period when I started, and no it did not work. There is another website about these methods: http://www.sisterzeus.com/Hsp1shlp.htm that mentions some other herbs, and talks more about time frames.
In the Phoenix area though, abortion is available, it's not like you would have to drive 10 hours. Please call some of these clinics and try to set up something with them. It doesn't cost anything to call and speak with them.
Ibuprofen will not cause miscarriage, it can however damage your own liver to the point that you need a liver transplant.
Trying to open your cervix yourself can easily kill you. Lost Clown makes it very clear that nothing like that should be attempted. I doubt if opening your cervix would even work, I have known of women carrying with open cervixes. It's very difficult to remove a fetus manually, it takes medical knowledge and special equipment. PLEASE MAKE SOME CALLS!
Whatever you have to do to get cash, run up a credit card, bounce a check, sell electronics, buy something with a hot check and hock it, hock something else at a pawn shop, is not as bad as putting your life at risk by trying to open your cervix.
Please keep in touch with us.
i had my period around june 2, and i had unprotected sex on the 14th. i started vitamin c around july 1 or 2, and wwas doing parlsey insertions. i got myself to have an orgasm the night of july 4th and i woke up the next morning with my period. it was kinda heavy the firrst few days and then was mid to light for another 3.all and all i had my period for about a week. i took a pregnancy test july 12 which was the day after my period ended and then again the morning of the 13. they were both negative. i stil feel slighty bloated and strange. ahould i still be worried that im pregnant? is it too soon to find out?
also, ive had some not completely solid bowels the past few days, could that have something to do with being pregnant?
loose stools is not a sign of pregnancy. If you had your period and negative tests you should be fine. The slightly bloaty feeling and the loose stools could be related, however, but not because of pregnancy.
it is me, not computer savy... i havent tried a close hanger yet. but i have to hide what i am doing parsley/vit c cuz my husband wants the baby and dosnt want me to go to a clinic. but i was reading some of the post and i think i have been doing it wrong. i started on thrus 7-12-07 w/ parsley tea, and putting the sprig in my vagina. in addition i thought was supposed to take the vit. c along w/ it. but in SINNAMONS POST 05-26-07 17:25 she said that she used the vit c for 11 days after the parley. have i been doing it wrong? (my intent was to finishe these last three days w/ 500mg every hr and get up at night and take 1500mg avery three hours. also, SINNAMONS said she was 7 or 8 weeks along which is what i am. did i do it worng? and what is plan b? and what is Dong Quai? I have not been talking Dong Quai...i dont know what it is or where to get it? LOST CLOWN PLEASE HELP ME! i dont know if i am a complete idieot for not understanding the what to do this or what, but please let me know how i can fix it.
Plan B is going to a clinic. Yes, there is a chance of your husband finding out, but he'll certainly find out and be more upset when he finds you dead from trying to remove it yourself.
Plan B is going to a clinic. I don't know why it worked for Sinnamon, but I am pretty sure that she is an exception to the rule. You can keep going with the vitamin C, but I strongly encourage you to make an appointment at an abortion clinic. If he finds out I'm sure he will understand if you tell him you were so desperate you were considering using a clothes hanger on yourself. because, again, that most certainly can end in death.
If I didn't make it clear enough in the last post:
For the love of god DO NOT TRY TO CUT OPEN YOUR CERVIX. YOU BEING DEAD IS NOT GOING TO HELP ANYTHING.
If the choices are a) death or b) your husband finding out GO WITH CHOICE B!!!
I posted a comment about a week ago and not computer savvy's story touched my heart. I also have a husband and a son already. I tried the parsely and vit c treatment for about a week with no results. I also think I may be too far along for this to work, so I started to look into abortion options in California and found out it could cost as much as $500. Then I called planned parenthood and they told me that some Kaiser coverage plans actually cover the procedure. THen I called the company to check my coverage and I can get the procedure simply with a doctors referral (which is totally confidential, even to your husband) for a co payment of $10. I havent decided what I am going to do but it is nice to know that I have options, and my husband does not have to find out. Many miscarriages happen and if you insurace covers it you dont have to worry about money, so check into your health plan.
It's me again 18:54, Not Computer Savy, I wanted to tell you that you stand a much better chance of your husband not figuring out that it wasn't just a natural miscarriage if you go to a clinic and get an abortion. Than if you try something drastic with a hanger. There are no stitches or anything like that after the clinic abortion, and you do bleed some, there is no reason why you could not just pass it off as a natural miscarriage.
I just keep thinking about you too, and my heart goes out to you.
How about this, do you go alone for checkups to the Dr.? If so, what if you were to tell him that a serious birth defect had been detected? Would that maybe change his mind about an abortion?
18:54 again here, http://www.marchofdimes.com/professionals/14332_1166.asp
Here is a link that talks about when these tests for birth defects occur etc. It looks like they start at 11 weeks.
A lot with depends on the kind of guy he is, some people pretty well beleive what the medical community says and some go running to the internet to find out everything possible. So you might have to wait until you are 11 weeks to do this if he is likely to be double checking, or if there are female relatives around who would know these tests start at 11 weeks generally for instance.
Even if he does go with you to all appointments, you could always say the Dr.s office called while he was at work because of a test result on urine or blood or something I guess.
I want to thank everyone for your helpful comments and ideas. Not computer savvy I am very worried about you. Please listen to their advice and don't do anything drastic that will kill you. Please, I'm begging you. Abortion is legal, we're not in the old days anymore where many women died because they have attempted what you are talking about.
Please please please. I don't want you to die, and neither do the other commenters.
it is me , not computer savy, we have talked about abortionas and he said no, i told him how misserble i have been and that i have bought razor blades becuase i felt so desperate. he still says no, and he will leave me. not only is he the love of my life, but financially i cant leave him. if i did go to the clinic and try and pass it off as a natural miscarrage he would know cuz he works in the medical community. nothing seems to work, i feel no cramping or anything. i am going to keep up the vit c tho and pray. i dont know what else to do...
thankyou for caring....
it is me not computer savy, dont worry i am not going to kill myself...i just thougth it, thank you again lost clown.
it is my not computer savy, i just forgot to tell you that if there is a genetic/chromozonal (or downssyndrom or anything like that)wrong w/ the baby then abortion is an option for him.
does anyone know of any drug that loosen the uterus wall besides vit c... at anypoint in the pregnancy. does anyone know about "rutin" what does that do, and at how many weeks can you do it, and does it look somewhat natural
it is me, not computer savy, i just called an aboution clinic,i asked if i get the "abortion pill" would, even tho i am about 9 1/2 weeks know could they give it to me and i would "start/cause" bleeding. even if it did not fully work and i had to go back for the surgical aboution at least it might kill the baby/start bleeding and look like a misscare (so my husband would not know). the lady said they dont give it past 7 weeks and if they did give it to me there would be a very very low chance that it would affect baby/start bleeding, it just doesnt work after 7 weeks, and i would need to have the surg.abortion.
so.....ibprofin can cause liver damage...what about "aspin" in low enough doses as to not harm me but harm the baby. remember all i have to do is start it (bleeding/ or have the baby die) then abortion w/ be an option for me. like i said i am not that computer savy and i have tried looking on the net but it took me weeks (too late) when i found this site.
i am going to still try the vit c till 10 days which would be i think 7-22-07, but i think it wont work cuz i have been talking muli-vit before preg. and pre-natal during these past few weeks. had i known about this site i would have stopped those pre-natal and multi so that my body would not be used to it. but i am really healthy and have talking multi vit most of my adult life.
if anyone has any solution i would appriciat it... thank you
Not Computer Savy:
It's me 15:24,
Please go ahead and make an appointment at the clinic, and focus your energy on getting that done instead of trying to continue with these herbal remedies at 9 1/2 weeks. Make sure that you make the appointment atleast a week AFTER you stop taking the Vitamin C. Vitamin C in these doses thins blood, which is also why you need to stay away from aspirin, it thins the blood too, and it won't cause a miscarriage. There is no guarentee that starting bleeding from the uterus will cause a miscarriage, many women continue to bleed during pregnancy every month. It just would increase the chance of you having a hemmorage. It would be best to stop taking everhthing now. And focus on getting to the clinic. If the RU486 won't work, it's not likely that any of this herbal stuff will.
People who work at abortion clinics keep your information private, they are not going to go around telling other people, that is against the law. Worst case senerio here, you go get the abortion, come home tell him you are bleeding and he immediately hauls you to the ER and stays in the room while they examine you, the Dr. is not going to know that you got an abortion without you telling him that you did. It will just look like a miscarriage, they won't find a heartbeat.
You are at a much greater risk of him finding out if you end up doing something yourself that causes you to hemmorage, bleed uncontrolably, and you have to be rushed to the ER, where they will do blood tests to detect what you have taken etc, where you may or not even be conscious.
And I want to say this too, no wonderful husband forces his wife to go through a pregnancy to deliver a baby that she is not ready for. This is your body, it should be your decision, and he should support that decision, that is how it works with wonderful guys.
Have you been to a Dr. to get the pregnancy confirmed? Or are you just going on home tests? Are you insured?
Please Please focus on getting that clinical abortion and stop worrying about herbs!
it is me, not computer savy. he is in the medical community so he would know if i got an sergicall abortion especially since we have been talking about it for weeks. also, what i have found out about sergal aboutions it that they vacume it out so when i was bleeding and he took me to the hospital/clinic they WOULD do an ultra sound and find no baby. that is my dilema. and i am way to far along to have a chemical abortion. my only hope is the herbs/vitiams (or other drugs) and massaging ( i heard that is you massage the uterus (like contractions/or squeze)and visulaize the baby and uterus linging leaving it might work. OR when i go for another ultra sound and they detected something wrong w/ the baby. i have not other means i am completly depended on him.
ps i have gone to the doctor i am 9 1/2 weeks into it
it is me,not computer savy. i am just going to keep doing what i am doing and hope for the best. i will call a clinic and ask if there is anyway this can be down and still look natural. thankyou for all the concern, but dont worry.
IF ANY ONE FINDS ANY OTHER SOLUTION PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
And I want to say this too, no wonderful husband forces his wife to go through a pregnancy to deliver a baby that she is not ready for. This is your body, it should be your decision, and he should support that decision, that is how it works with wonderful guys.
I'd like to second this statement. It is cruel and selfish of him to tell you you must have this baby that you do not want. Go to a clinic, have an abortion, and tell him you started bleeding badly and went to a doctor about it. He won't know.
hi its anon who asked about getting my period and 2 negative tests.. well i think im consitpated which is a sign of pregnancy.
Thank you for this.
I'm 15; we use a condom and BC every time, but the last time the condom broke and for the past few days my breasts have been sore and I'm terrified.
thank you for this blog. it will prove to be very useful.
greetings from Australia.
It's me the women with a husband and son. The vit c and parsley didnt work for me but i found out that an abortioin procedure is covered by my insurance. The only problem now is that I have to find someone to drive me home from the clinic. I do not want anyone to know about this, not because they will hate me or disown me, but because I know they will silently judge me for the rest of my life. I really just want to do this without anyone knowing. Can savvy ideas on how I can get a ride home? They already said I can just call a taxi. Help!?!
They have said you can call a taxi,or that you cannot call a taxi?
Me again 18:54, they told me that I had to have someone to drive me home too, but no one asked where that person was until the proceedure was over, they asked if I had someone, I said he was outside, so by the time they figure out you have no one, it will be too late... who knows, at the last minute, your ride could have had a car accident....
Anon 20:39.
If you're that worried about it go to a clinic to get tested. Like I said your bowel problems can be something else entirely.
I just wanted to say that I've used Parsley tea before to bring on a late period so I do know that it does work.
I also don't understand why granny seems to be only attacking you when there are other sites that give almost the same advice all over the web. :?
Because you can comment here?
*shrug*
thank you so much for this usefull info!!
i just have one question,(don't know if it has been asked before b/c there is too much to read through)
do you know if, that if you use drugs(like cocaine and weed)on a somewhat regular basis,there is a possibillity that the vit c/parsley treatment will not work?cause your body is so used to those heavy chemicals that the herb thing is just not strong enough??
I have no idea about coke, but some of my friends who are frequent pot smokers have used this method without a hitch.
Hello. My cycle is a week late and I found out yesterday that I am not pregnant. I've been under a lot of stress lately with my daughter and I was wondering if you have any ideas on how to help me bring back my cycle or ways to help with the stress so my cycle can come back.
This method will bring back your cycle, even if you're not pregnant.
