Going on holiday in 10 days............BUT!

[Distel]

Just realised I will have my period

We have promised the children we will do loads of swimming and I can't wear Tampons. Is there anyway of getting rid of it for a month? Ithought maybe not having the 7 day break in my pill might make a difference.

Can anyone help me??????????????

you can take your pill straight through it won't harm you. I have done it myself.

And that will stop the period?

yes. Its called backtoback or something, just means that your period won't come and then when you take a break the following month you will have a period.

Ohhhhhhhhh - you have really cheered me up.

Thankyou, I will have to hunt out the swimming costume .

good, glad I could help.

The other thing you can use is "Utovlan" from the Doctor. It stops your period completely until your ready to have one.

Is that a tablet or a sticky in thing??

So technical with these things arn't I

Will I still be protected from sex - with DH of course?

Utovlan isn't a contraceptive or anything. It's just a tablet that stops periods for any number of reasons. However, if you're on the pill, you're probably better off just taking that until next month as you've already talked about.

Thankyou x x
