Period after delayed cycle?

0 replies

I have regular cycles where my Health app predicts the start of my period accurately, give or take a day. I'm currently on my period now with the next one due to start end of April and the one after that right in the middle of a family holiday at the end of May.

Due to the nature of the trip (long flight, day at a water park, all inclusive alcohol, generally just wanting to feel at my energetic best), I've ordered Norethisterone through Boots online doctor to delay my period.

Now having found posts from others who have done this, it looks like it stops the bleeding but can make you a bloated, moody mess while you're delaying?

Along with the higher risk of clots with a long flight, remembering to take the pills 3x a day and the above, I am now planning to delay my next period instead (so try to move it from around 30 April to 10 May) in the hopes that any side effects will be early May and it'll push back my cycles so will be in the clear for my holiday (24 May-1 June).

Does anyone have any experience or knowledge regarding if that will work out ok?
