I love this site!!! Thank you everyone who talked about using ACV to help with prolonged, heavy periods. I thought I'd never stop bleeding even tho mine had only been 3 weeks compared to some of the other stories. I'm 51 and my periods had always been so predictable til this past year. I am taking 2 capsules of ACV 3 times a day and it stopped in 2 & 1/2 days... thank you, thank you...:)

This is amazing. I was actually looking for validation to a claim that I am ready to scream to the top of my lungs and I found it here! After my last period, someone told me about drinking ACV for cleansing my digestive tract and relieving myself of excess water. Well, I think I was so focused on my increased number of bowel movements that I missed another wonderful discovery!

Let's go back... For years, menstruation has been a nightmare for me. I was to the point where my doctor told me that if I wanted to have any more children, I needed to do it now because what she wanted to do about my ABNORMAL bleeding would prevent pregnancy. Well, I've since battled infertility issues (for which I am looking to resolve naturally before I go back to the fertility specialist), but I just came off my period and realized that I didn't have debilitating cramps, my monthly headache, nor those big monster clots that hit the comode water and splash back up at me! Could ACV be a part of my healing?! ?! ?! ? I mean, no one knows how depressed I would get knowing that my period was coming... Nights of miserable sleeping, nervous anxieties of messing up my clothes... I'm gonna do this for another month and if it still works, I'm telling everyone I know who deals with periods from HADES!

I started using ACV a few months ago to lose a few extra pounds. My period was regular because of my birth control. 2 months ago I was waiting for my period, it usually came on Friday or early Saturday. All day Saturday I was in a panic because nothing had happened and I thought I was pregnant! Luckily later in the afternoon my period started and I was relieved lol! So I looked it up and learned that ACV can help with periods... cool! The next month the same thing happened... cool! This month, well it is now the Tuesday after the Saturday that I was supposed to start....and nothing!!! I had no period at all this month. Crazy but I am not complaining! (and no I am not pregnant :D ) This works! I only drink a small glass of OJ with a splash of ACV before dinner and it does the trick!

Dear Jenny,

Apple Cider Vinegar contains nutrients, so it is possible it helps different things by correcting nutritional deficiencies. It is also used to help alkalize the body, which will help to correct a number of health problems.

It is possible that you will only need it at certain times. On the other hand, it may benefit you taken daily for a long time. Everyone's needs are different.

In times past and even still in some cultures, it is normal to have some sort of fermented food with meals as a condiment. We tend to think of condiments as things to make food taste better, but some condiments actually help the digestion of the meal. (Sauerkraut for example.)

I have been using Apple Cider Vinegar for years and have found it helpful for so many things, internally and externally.

Hi all,

I was diagnosed with PCO about five years ago... I'm 45 years old, married with no children. I been having abnormal cycles all my life and at times none at all. I found a website which made reference to ACV Organic Raw (unfiltered). I begin taking about six months ago and I tell you NO lie. I have had a cycle every month. I'm also type II diabetic and my numbers are AWESOME! I have always exercised (walking) on a regular. Sometimes the "Natural" elements work. I wished I had knew about this years ago but hopefully this information can be helpful to someone:)

Apple cider vinegar helped so much with my problem of heavy bleeding, I am 53 and was having such a terrible time.

I tried 2 tps ACV with a bottle of water and orange flavored drink mix. I drank it 3 times that day and it slowed down the flow so much, it made my period so much more easier to deal with. I recommend the ACV treatment each day of your period, you won't need any other medicine at all.

Hi, Just wanted to ask, i've just started with the ACV (2 TBS) with honey (1 TSP) mixed with water. I drank it 3 times a day yesterday. I'm currently on my third day of menses, and noticed that my bleeding so much less. I've also have a slight fever with an on-going, but bearable headache. Took aspirin, but it didn't go away. Now i'm worried that my fever could be due to my menses slowing down due to the ACV? is this bad? please advise

Dear Carol,

It would be a shame to have to stop something that is helping with the arthritis and weigh loss. My inclination would be to continue for another cycle or two with the vinegar and see how it goes. Perhaps it will level out. Even with the longer cycle, a lighter flow is desirable. If it happens again, you could always try some cayenne or shepherd's purse to see if it will stop the bleeding in a more timely fashion.

I have never noticed ACV affecting my cycle for good or bad and I have taken it for 6 years. But everyone is different. 100 people will share 100 stories on the topic!

Just my 2 cents. Let us know how it goes.

I am so thankful that I found this site and saw all of the other women's experiences by using ACV. I am a 45 year old so I am in perimenopause and my symptoms have been horrific. For the past two years I have had excessive bleeding, flooding, clotting, anemia, and pain with my periods. I have missed many days of work and I have had to stay literally locked up at home for fear of having constant accidents out in public. My periods were every 3 weeks instead of 4 and they would last for say 10 days. Just recently I went to the doctor and she put me on birth control pills. Well I didn't have a period for 5 weeks.... Then midway in taking my birth control pills I started to flow again. It was light so I thought I was doing good. Then, I just continued to flow for days. Then on day 13 of light bleeding I started to flood and huge clots again only this time it was worse than ever before. Just to say this as of day 18, yesterday, I was about to go to the hospital thinking that I would need a blood transfusion.

But I came across this website while I was looking for natural remedies for my heavy menses. I have organic ACV and I put some in some water with honey and drank it three times yesterday and I am pleased to say that I am having a much lighter flow. I have used it today as well and it has made such a difference for me so far! I have found my saving grace!

Thank you so much for this site and all of the helpful comments from women like me. I am spreading the word so other woman will have to suffer like I have! So ladies reach for the ACV for your period!

I just wanted to thank those of you that have posted their experience with using ACV for prolonged periods and earthclinic.com for providing this site. I missed my period for two months. When it came it lasted for nine weeks. It flowed through tampons and pads. I could not leave my home for fear I would leak through. I also had very large clots. My doctor did a sonogram and said nothing was wrong so she scheduled an appointment for a gyn. I was sick of bleeding so heavy. I was getting exausted and anemic from the blood loss.

So, I decided to find a home remedy for the problem. That's when I found this site. I thought I need to try this. I mixed one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with 8 oz. of water and drank it two times a day. My period completed stopped in a day and a half. I have cut back to once a day but the bleeding did not come back yet. I am very happy that I didn't have to spend lots of money and go through unnecessary medical procedures to stop it. I wish doctors would share this kind of information. Thanks again earthclinic.

I am so excited to share this story with you ladies. I came across this website a few days ago because I was trying to obtain some information about missed menstrual cycles. I found the cure for it right here on this website.

Today is February 11, 2012. I had not seen my cycle since December 5, 2011. This is not the first time it has happened to me. The early part of last year, I had gone almost 3 months without getting my cycle. One day without notice, it came and it was a massive overflow. Luckily for me, I was in a pasture fishing with my mom and there was no one else around. It freaked me out because I was thinking at the time, what if I had been in a grocery store or a public place when it happened. Anyways, I got over that time. Months went by and my cycle was normal. Then, after it went off in December 2011, it never came back on again.

After researching this website, I decided to try the apple cidar vinegar.

Yesterday morning, I put 1/2 cup of water in a cup and 2 Tablespoons of apple cidar. The taste wasn't lovely but it was bearable. I sucked it through a straw because I had heard also that the acid in the vinegar is not that great on your teeth. I love pickles so I guess it doesn't really matter to me.. :) I also drunk another dose of it last night before I went to bed.

Around 11am this morning when I used the bathroom, I could tell that my cycle was beginning. I was so freakin amazed by this. It truly works.... And even more, it came without the flooding effect. I was so worried about my cycle because I have a trip planned to Destin, FL next week and I had all kinds of thoughts going through my head about what if it floods while I am out with the girls, etc.

I hope anyone reading this will use this remedy. I also think I have figured out what causes my cycle to do this and why the apple cidar works. This is just my opinion and observation but here goes. The uterine lining sheds each month when our cycle comes on. However, for those times our cycle don't come on, the uterine line actually blocks the menstruation from happening. Just imagine this lining that's there blocking the area where the blood flow comes through. Each month that your cycle does not come on, that lining is there starting to sag heavily from the built up menstruation. Weird I know. But then I think the reason the apple cider vinegar helps start your period is because the acid in it is so strong that it helps eat away the lining. Just a thought but something is going on for this to work as well as it does. I can't really explained the part about why the blood flow does not come out uncontrollably. Maybe it also dissolves some of the blood while it's working on the uterine lining. Like I said, just a thought. I am curious though.

If anyone has a better explanation, please explain it to me. Good luck ladies. I hope you all have as much success with this as I have. Thank you so much to all the ladies who posted their situation on here. You never know how valuable the information you share is until you do!!

I stopped and started using ACV again, I noticed that when my monthy cycle came, it was lighter than usual, no PMS either, I was pleasantly surprised, no cramping, nothing. I am hoping that since I have started back on the ACV my blood pressure will be regulated again, and my heart palpitations will disappear.

Has anybody had problems with thickening of the lining of womb? Had lots of periods that were heavy and lasted a month or weeks .
Scan found a cyst and lining of womb is 34 mm .Been to gynaecologist and they want to do ablation to remove lining. I have been taking apple cider vinegar and black strap mollases for over a month now and had no bleed so far which is a miracle. Just wondering if it would reduce the womb lining naturally . Gynaecologist says he doesn't advocate any treatment like that and insists I need ablation. I'm very worried and hate hospitals.

Any advice would be brilliant thanx 😇😇😇😇

Thank you for your post. I have been taking the Raw organic apple cider vinegar, but have missed the last few days. Even though I'm transitioning into Menopause I ended up w/ a migraine and heavy flow. I'm going to get back on the vinegar. I don't need this sort of trouble. It's difficult to be at work in this situstion. Thank you for posting it!

Dear Beth,

I agree with Mmsg that Blackstrap Molasses would be something else good to try, in addition to the ACV.

Regarding the ACV, everyone is different. If you try the pills, try a couple a day and see how it does. If you see no change, you could increase to 4 etc. My husband takes 2 a day of the NOW brand. I think they smell terrible. :) But he thinks my vinegar drink tastes terrible! :) You might look at the ACV pages on this website to see warnings (in red) and side effects (in orange) to help you see what possible side effects have been noticed.

You might look for the book by Dr. John Lee called, "What your Doctor may not tell you about pre-menopause." I found it very helpful several years ago.

I hope this will be resolved for you soon!

No I haven't tried those. How much do you take each of those? The ACV tablets are doing nothing for me. I read it takes the ACV tablets longer to get in your system then it does the actual ACV liquid. I may go back to the liquid, because I did stop for a whole day with it. I am only spotting a little, and I can't believe it hasn't stopped it, others that bleed a lot have success. It doesn't make sense, I am worried it's something bad nothing will work. Since I have tried Vitex, ACV, Maca, Am/PM menopausal formula, and Femaprin. Although Femaprin did help me for 14 months it stopped. I probably should have taken a break from the Femaprin for a couple weeks, and started over, someone told me my body, might have just got used to it, and stopped working.


Apple Cider Vinegar
Posted by Beth (West Virginia) on 01/01/2015

I hadn't had a period since Sept, only spotting. I took the ACV pills for over a week, but wasn't getting any where so I started a couple tbsp of ACV with a couple tbsp of water 2 to 3x's a day & taking Vitamin C pills 1000mg a day then my period started very heavy for about 3 days, and then it went down to spotting., Yesterday I only spotted a few times, and had nothing most of the day. So far today nothing. So I am hoping this will continue. Will write another update, either way, in a few days.

Okay on another note, the ACV pills & combination of drinking the ACV liquid & water made 2 planter warts disappear on my foot, I have had for years, and nothing I did worked. I know it's because of the ACV, because I have not done anything else, I wasn't taking the ACV for this reason only for the spotting, but to my happy surprise got rid of the warts in the process. I had read to soak a wart in the ACV, but I was afraid of it burning my foot. So I guess by taking the ACV internally it worked from inside out, and removed them. So try this also for warts. ACV seems to be a real cure for a lot of things. I just pray the continuation of the ACV & the Vitamin C will continue to keep me from spotting & bleeding, and put me back on track with my periods now that I have had one. Since it helped me rid myself of those warts I hated for so long. I hope this helps someone else.

I would go ahead and take it a few days after you period is over. It is safe to take all month long. Some people take it 5 days on and 2 days off.

To JoonieYork, Uk

I am 49 years old and I started having symptoms of pre menopause about 4 or 5 years ago. It started with me by me skipping a month and then the next month I started with extremely heavy bleeding and the blood clots. It was hard to stand and walk because the huge blood clots would just slip right past the tampon and pad. I was using the highest absorbancy of both. Well I bled heavy like this for 3 weeks, scared to leave the house, couldn't go shopping, or go out to dinner with my family.

Went to the DR, he said there was something he could give me but he said " We like to let it work itself out". So anyway, the next month I had a normal period that lasted about 8 to 9 days, which was a day or so longer than my usual, and about the 2 or 3rd day would be my heaviest days with flooding with blood clots. I could deal with that and it went on like that until September of this past year. Then I skipped a month and then the next month spotted for the whole month, then stopped for 2 weeks and then started spotting again. I spotted from November until December after Christmas and then I started bleeding heavy for about a few days and then stopped for 2 days. I then started again really heavy with the huge blood clots and cramps, blood clots seem to slip right past the tampons and pads so I have to limit what I do.

I get weak and lightheaded and it's been going on now for about 3 to 4 weeks. There are times I think I am slowing down and then here comes the flood. I get angry and emotional because there are things I can't do, some clothes I can't wear for fear of ruining them.

Then I read the ladies post, the name I posted at the beginning of my post, and after reading her post I don't feel so bad. She gave me a lot of inspiration, it's one of those sayings " when you think your life is so bad and think you have it so bad just stop and think there is somebody out there that is having it worse " so I am feeling much better today.

I haven't tried the Apple cider vinegar, but I am going today to get the Organic apple cider vinegar along with the Blackstrap molasses and organic foods. I also have the benign, non-cancerous tumors in my uterus and I know they need to be removed, but I just had colon surgery a couple of years ago and they had to remove 8" of my colon along with my appendix due to Diverticulitis. That is a major surgery to recover from, especially in the later years of life. I am just now starting to feel better from that surgery, so I am not looking forward to having another surgery.

I am scared to take Hormone pills. I have heard so many horror stories about them, but I ran across this amazing website earth clinic and I was reading that Blackstrap molasses is good for fibroid tumors and a lot of other things so I am gonna try that first. I am a believer in home remedies over harsh medications that Dr's want to push on you so I think me running across this website is a GODSEND, I am feeling much better about myself now, just have to get this bleeding to stop.

But I was wondering about one thing. I know going through pre menopause is a must and is natural because it prepares your body for menopause, so I was wondering if stopping the bleeding would only be prolonging the pre menopause? I don't know, just something I was curious about?

and for Joonie York if you read this please message me. I would really love to talk to you because your story has been an inspiration to me, or reply and I will send you my email address. I just want to say Thank You.

Dear Susan,

It has been several years since Joonie posted that; I hope she sees it and is able to get back to you! It is so encouraging to see that others get better from things you are dealing with!

I am very hopeful that the Apple Cider Vinegar and Blackstrap will help you a lot!

Regarding you question if stopping the bleeding will prolong the pre-menopause, I do not think so. I do think that some prescriptions and herbs may prolong pre-menopause. But, I think what you are trying to do is REGULATE it. The amount of bleeding you have had is likely leaving you anemic (The Blackstrap will help with that.)

In addition to the vinegar and blackstrap, you may want to look into castor oil packs or charcoal poultices on the abdomen 4 nights a week for a few weeks. Both have helped women with fibroids and benign tumors in the uterus, which may be the reason for the out of control bleeding.

Hopefully the vinegar and Blackstrap will help quickly. If they should take a bit of time to regulate your cycles and bleeding, cayenne pepper and Shepherd's Purse are both helpful when you are having too much bleeding. 3/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper in 6 ounces of juice and/or 30 drops of Shepherd's purse tincture. I have taken them hourly (for a couple of hours) for heavy bleeding during a miscarriage, which may have spared me from a D&C.

Keep us posted on your progress!

The ACV works amazingly well. I have been drinking ACV in hot water (no honey) 3x a day for the past week and realized that I have about half the amount of flow I normally do. No cramping, either!"

Dosage: 2 TBSP of Apple Cider Vinegar in 8 oz of water 3x a day. You must continue to drink it throughout the day if you want your flow to slow down. It will speed back up after a few hours if you don't!

Apple Cider Vinegar for Heavy Menstrual Bleeding

I don't see a way to ask questions; only post a testimonial.

Seems like so many of you have hit home runs with this remedy, and I'm so happy for you. I'd love nothing more than to be in that position soon. Currently, though, I'm feeling weak, lost and scared.

If you're able, I'd greatly appreciate feedback on the following:

1) Did your period get worse before it got better with this remedy? I'm hoping that I'm not one of the minority for whom the ACV makes me bleed more and that I “get over” this uncomfortable stage to the sweet spot you have experienced.

2) Do you ever add baking soda to offset the possible side effects some have reported here? If so, do I still take the remedy on an empty stomach?

3) Do you have any feedback on this remedy in relation to your dental health?

4) Is the remedy still working for you?

5) Have you been able to discontinue the remedy but still maintain the wonderful effects? I guess I'm wondering if it's more of a band-aid or a true remedy.

Thank you so very much.

Hi Alex :)

Oregano essential oil seems to cause ovarian cysts in me, I get discomfort in that area. So the oregano oil may be the culprit.

Have you tried sage or vitex? They may be just what you are looking for. The sage would probably be taken only between periods or if the bleeding during your period is excessive. Just a few fresh leaves chewed and swallowed once a day may be sufficient. Check the produce section of the grocery store for fresh sage.

Dong quai is great right before your period starts to soothe the discomfort and mood.

I am in Perimenopause, and I am having the constant bleeding. I am on my 8th week of spotting. I had success with Femaprin for 14 months, then it stopped working. I came in search of something else, and found this website. I see ACV has worked for a lot of you, with the constant non-stop bleeding. For those of you that take the ACV pills, what is the brand, and how many times a day do you take them? I also tried red raspberry tea pills, they did nothing for me. I also tried just the Vitex, and again did not work for me. So I am praying the ACV will work. I tried some in the water, before bed, and it stopped, but through the night I started again, and it was more than spotting. Sorry for TMI. So I don't know if the ACV made it worse, or not. But I am willing to give this a try. I just want to take the pills, but unsure of how many a day to take, and how many times a day. And if there is any unwanted side effects from too much? Thanks for any help.

I tried the ACV in water a couple days, and actually stopped for a whole day, but then the next day I started bleeding again, but I didn't drink as much the day prior so that could be why. I stopped it, until I received the ACV (NOW brand) pills in the mail today, I took 4 so far it hasn't stopped, or slowed down, I just hope it works with the pills, as I hate drinking the ACV in the water. Thank you both for answering my questions. I will look for the book. Merry Christmas!

Well, 3 days of the ACV tablets 2x's a day, and so far it's doing nothing to stop the spotting. Maybe I haven't given it enough time yet, but I am losing hope. Most everyone else it seems had the bleeding stop within a few days. I guess I will just be one of the unlucky ones. I will keep taking it, but not holding my breath it will work. If it does work, I will be back to post, if I don't then you will know it didn't. Best wishes to all out there that have had success, and will have success with the ACV.

I couldn't stand the taste, so I mixed it in with Apple Cider. Can barely taste the vinegar at all!

HI I have a question... does ACV diluted to 5% acidity with water work? Can I use it?

Hi Scmm,

Most Apple Cider Vinegar is diluted to 5% acidity when you buy it. Most people that use and dilute it further in water to drink it. (I do have a child that just takes the 5% straight and then drinks water, to get it over with.) I like 1 Tablespoon of vinegar in an 8 oz. glass of water. This works great for me.

Thank you so much for answering my question. I started using it from yesterday afternoon, Should I drink it till the period stops or should I continue it for few more days after the period is over? Thank you for your reply, Scmm

I was wondering how long do you need to take the apple cider vinegar if the bleeding stops and also is it something you can take just at the onset of your period or is it something you need to take all month long to get the benefits of shorten less heavy periods? Thank you

Hi Carla, Please try find organic - ie stay away from the big companies. Its your body, your garden - use the best for you. You're worth it. I say this becauseo f reading the earlier post of the woman who quit meat products and then started having her period. I have heard this so much - re too much hormones in the food - meat and dairy being the biggies for those who wish to have their periods/get pregnant. God bless your mom for being there with you/for you.

For those looking for a good source of ACV, one of the best and most trusted brands is Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, with "the Mother". Most health food stores carry it, though the smaller independent stores seem more likely to have it than the big chain stores. If you have a Whole Foods Market nearby, they carry it as well. You can also get it at Amazon.com. It's worth the money, and is certainly cheaper over the long run than drugs or surgery. :) Good luck!

My cycle has been on since October of 2011. If it does stop flowing, it has never been off for more than a week and it comes right back on. This is so very frustrating, and any advice would be nice.

★☆☆☆☆

Me too. Makes me bleed more, horrible. So does cayenne. Its a blood thinner, like aspirin. Its illogical to suggest that for heavy bleeding.
