Delay your period safely with confidential support from your local pharmacy.
Our pharmacy team can check suitability, explain how period delay tablets work, and provide clear advice so you feel confident before starting treatment.
Our period delay service provides discreet, professional support if you want to delay your period for a special event, holiday, or important occasion. Norethisterone may be suitable for short-term period delay after a pharmacist assessment.
This service may be suitable if you are aged 18 or over, have regular periods, and want to delay your period temporarily. Our pharmacist will check your medical history, current medication, blood pressure, and suitability before supplying norethisterone.
You will have a private consultation with our pharmacy team. The pharmacist will ask a few health questions and explain when to start taking norethisterone, how often to take it, and when your period is likely to return after stopping treatment.
Possible side effects from norethisterone may include nausea, bloating, breast tenderness, headache, mood changes, changes in bleeding, or stomach discomfort. Our pharmacy team will explain how to take the tablets safely and advise when further medical support may be needed.
