Just finished taking the above medication to delay my period. Can anyone tell me if they've taken it how long it took for their period to start after taking the last tablet. Thanks 😊

Mine was pretty quick. Forgot to take a tablet and came on my period a few hours later. Not gonna lie, it was a difficult period. Quite heavy, painful, and I passed a few clots/lumps. I've taken it again since then so can't have been that bad though!

3 days after I took the last tablet.

Thank you, GP did say this period would be heavier than normal.

A day later. My period was lighter. I read it can be a treatment for heavy periods? Weird.

About 2 days here. I have irregular periods so have used it a few times to delay it.

A day or two here but much heavier and more painful.
