taking more vitamin c than you are supposed to take will not help you to become more immune to getting the cold.

There is indeed a theory that high doses of vitamin c prevent colds. I think the jury's still out although I have a friend who hasn't had a cold for 17 years and he takes a lot of it

If you take too much, the only side effect you should experience is diarrhea - I don't think it can cause your periods to stop.

Hmm..I have never heard of that happening. I think you're just spotting, you'll get your period soon don't worry.

You would have to take megadoses of vitamin C to get any real physical effects of any kind. Extra vitamin C is eliminated from the body through the urine. There is no reason to believe it would stop your period.
