You must be prepared for the fact that changing the diet will not immediately stop your period. If the problem recurs regularly, you should not only consult a doctor, but also revise your menu.
Reduce the amount of physical activity. If you go in for sports, fitness, jogging in the morning, dancing, it is better to give up these activities for a few days.
