Period Delay
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.

Period Delay Information
Having your period can be inconvenient at times, especially If you’re going on holiday or have a big event coming up, like a wedding or a festival. If you’re thinking of postponing your period but may be worried about the possible impact on your menstrual cycle, we recommend reading this page as we explore the uses and benefits of period tablets, as well as the side effects and effectiveness.
Delay period for holiday
If you are going on holiday or have a special event but are due your period, it’s unsurprising that you might want to skip it! Luckily, there are two recommended ways to delay your period for your holiday or for any other event like a wedding, date night or spa holiday. This comes in two forms, the first is that of the period delay tablet and the second, the contraceptive pill.
How to delay your period
One of the best ways to delay your period is by using period delay tablets, which can cause your period to come later than usual. The other is the contraceptive pill, which you can take without having a break. Women will either take two packs back-to-back of their combined oral contraceptive, or use period delaying tablets.
Period delay tablets are designed to stop you from coming on your period so you can move the menstrual event to a more convenient date. We recommend using period delaying tablets such as norethisterone, or Utovlan, the brand name of norethisterone.
Recommended medication like Utovlan is administered to prevent eggs from being released, subsequently causing your period to be delayed. You will need to take these three times a day, for four days before your period is due for them to be effective.
