Can Intake Of High Dosage Of Vitamin C Tablets Induce Periods?

Hello I m 18 years old and I didn t take part in sex but during oral seX some semen possibly rubbed against my genitals. I might be pregnant and my periods are about 2 days late.I read that I can take high dosage of vitamin c tablets that don t contain bioflavonoid and rose hips to induce my period,but I m not able to find which tablet doesn t contain bioflavonoids. Limcee? Celin? It s is not mentioned on the tablet packet. Pleaseplease help!! I don t want to take emergency pills as I am not sure that I m pregnant or if my period is late due to other reasons.

hello
i understand your concern. Vitamin C is a water soluble vitamin. On taking high dose of vitamin C increases estrogen level which induces periods and acts as a natural agent for abortion.
you are delayed by only 2 days of your period. you can do a pregnancy test to confirm pregnancy. at this time emergency pill is not helpful. it is helpful during first 72 hours of unprotected sex.
regarding your tablet, consult a doctor and take a dose of vitamin c according to doctor's prescription.
hope this helpful to you.
