Some women choose to delay their period due to special occasions such as a wedding or holidays. Periods can be seen as an inconvenience and so women will either take two packs back to back of their combined oral contraceptive, or use period delaying tablets such as norethisterone, or Utovlan, the brand name of norethisterone.
If you would like to read more about how to delay your period with the combined contraceptive pill, see the NHS page on delaying your period.
If you need to use tablets to delay your period, simply fill out the consultation or pop into our pharmacy in Rendlesham and our friendly pharmacy team will be ready to help.
