Sorry, bad news:none: Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but there are no over-the-counter pills to delay one's periods. Hormonal contraception eg birth control pills, can be taken in such a manner as to "prevent" menses but these are, of course, by prescription only. Furthermore, even if you got a prescription today, you wouldn't delay period. It requires skipping placebo/sugar pills & starting next pack immediately
