HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
There are ways to delay your period.
If you use oral contraceptives, do not take the 7 day break. If you continue to use the active pills, it will delay the period.
If you do not use oral contraceptives then you can norethisterone. The normal dose given is 5 mg, 3 times a day. it should be started 3 to 4 days until the period is due.
It can be continued up to 2 weeks or until you want to have your period.
You would need a prescription from your doctor.
I hope this helps
