Best Answer

There is no benefit to douching with alum.

Douching in general is unhygienic and unhealthy as it can change vaginal pH so allow for harmful bacterial growth, it can force harmful bacteria further up into the vagina, and it can wash away discharge needed to protect the vaginal walls. Douching with alum is claimed to tighten the vagina, but the vagina cannot be tightened and nor should anyone want to as a tight vagina is a bad thing - a vagina will only be tight if a woman is tense or not fully aroused, thus sex wouldn't be as enjoyable and may cause pain or vaginal tissue damage.

No, douching doesn't effect your period at all - when your period is due is determined by your menstrual cycles, nothing about douching could effect this.
