Doctors are warning women to not take the 'irresponsible' advice of putting parsley in their vagina to kick-start their period.

The bizarre suggestion was made by women's magazine Marie Claire alongside other recommendations using food, drink and exercise.

Women may want to make their period come sooner as a means of controlling their cycle ahead of a holiday or special event.

According to the article, parsley is an emmenagogue - a substance that increases menstrual flow - which can 'soften the cervix and level out hormonal imbalances'.

Marie Clare has now apologised for the article and taken it down because it is 'misguided'

Dr Sheila Newman, an obstetrician-gynaecologist from New Jersey, also spoke of her concern over the practice, which is not medically advised. She branded it 'irresponsible'.

She said: 'That is not something that is recommended by gynaecologists.

'There are only a few things that should go in your vagina and vegetables generally aren't one of them.'

Is it OK to use “Ranch Dressing” with the veggies, etc.

Vitamin B rich yogurt a few days before my cycle always kept the back pain away.

Course, I ate the yogurt. I didn’t spoon it in there. lol

This is as stupid as Chrissy Teigen and her vaginal steaming.

I love parsley!

It was always the first thing I ate whenever we would go to a restaurant when I was a kid.

A chef would recommend a bouquet garni for maximum aroma.
