Norethisterone - period delay

5 replies

ninebiscuits · 25/02/2026 23:28

Hi
Can anyone help... I am in need of some period delay meds, in less than 24hrs...how is it best to go about this?? GP will make me do an online consult, with max 48hr turnaround, so no guarantee I will get a reply same day and Boots online cannot expedite or guarantee before 24hrs and I leave for the airport early hours Friday.
My period is 2 weeks late (100% not pregnant!) which is likely due to stress of moving house 2 weeks ago, and it decides now its going to re appear... am I too late to start taking it? Im not on just yet, but emotional and bloated... I can just tell its imminent!

Thanks for your help!!!

Could your local pharmacy help this morning? Give them a ring

Some large airports have private GPs you can see who may be able to prescribe it for you? You need to start taking it asap.

Local family planning and sexual health clinics can help. You'd need to check/phone your local area and see when they have their own clinics though.

I order it online and you just answer a few questions. Sure you can pay next day delivery. I think I’ve used pharmacy2u but there’s all sorts

Thanks everyone, I did manage to get a prescription in time, using a private GP through a work health scheme I'd forgotten about! 😅 started taking them now, and will see if I got it soon enough 🤞 packed prepared just incase!
