How to Push Your Period Back?

Use hormonal birth control to delay your period, if prescribed or already approved by your clinician

Skip the placebo week of a combined birth control pill pack and start the next pack right away

Use a continuous or extended-cycle birth control regimen under medical guidance

Ask a clinician about norethindrone or other period-delay medications

Plan ahead and start any period-delay method only after confirming it is safe for you

Avoid trying to delay your period with unproven home remedies

Check with a healthcare professional if you have irregular cycles, heavy bleeding, migraines, clotting history, or other health concerns
