Suggest Medication To Delay Periods In Women Suffering With Epilepsy
Hi I take carbamazepine for epilepsy & I was wondering is there anything I can take that would delay my period as it is due when I m on holiday? I ve read that norethisterone isnt suitable & I can t use the pill as a form of contraception either so its not an option. Any suggestions? Thanks

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, your history of epilepsy and history of taking "Carbamazepine" and want to delay the menses are not anything to take with each other, but I would like to say that it is better to avoid taking hormone medicine without any pathology, because taking hormone for delaying menses is not advisable at all, hope this information helps, take care, and have a nice day.
