How to delay my period for a few days?

[frillddhd]

Does anyone know if there is a 'proper' and safe way to delay periods for a couple of days or so?

I can feel myself ovulating (I always do), and without failing my period always arrives 2 weeks after feeling this. But in exactly two weeks I am going to an event on a farm, and from past experience I know the toilets are vile. Therefore, I REALLY don't want to be on my period or even use the loos at all if I can help it!

Is there a pill I can ask the doctor for, and how easy/hard is it to get hold of something like this (if it exists?)

You want norethisterone. The GP can prescribe it.

There's a tablet I've used a couple of times called norethisterone I think. You start taking around 3 days before period due I think. You can buy from online pharmacies too.

I asked my GP for this before. She warned me, the period that follows after taking the medicine can be very heavy. In a split second, I changed my mind and thought it wouldn't be worth it.

I've used it a few times and never had any issues.

You can order it from boots/Superdrug. You fill out a questionnaire and then get it delivered or collect in store.

I've used norethisterone from my gp before, worked perfectly and my period started 3 days after the last tablet, had an extremely painful period not particularly heavy but I passed a big chunk of lining which after googling is called a decidual cast 😖

Google is your friend, my friend, Norethistherone has been a stalwart for this for years.

I’ve used Norethisterone a few times, never had a problem with it. I was surprised what a simple solution it is to situations like yours OP. I took it the first time before a water sports holiday that would have been a complete nightmare otherwise!

I took it on holiday. Caused extreme mood swings and migraine. Never again. The pill causes migraine for me too however.

My girls have both used Norethisterone to delay periods for holidays (aged 18 & 20) no adverse effects reported.

I used norethisterone a few months ago, when my period was due during a planned holiday.
Had no problems at all, and it brought peace of mind.
Didn't see my GP: I used Boots online Period Delay Clinic, and just collected it from my local pharmacy.
