A member asked:

I need to delay my period for a few days.. is there anything my doctor can give me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Delay a period: The easiest way to delay a period is to take oral contraceptives as long as there is no medical reason not too. The earlier before an expected period you start, the higher the likelihood for success!
