When to seek medical help
Period-delay medication is a short-term option and isn't suitable for everyone, our online consultation is designed to check your medical history before anything is prescribed. Start the process well ahead of your trip or event, as it needs to be taken for a period of time before your period is due. Contact your GP or NHS 111 if you experience unexpected heavy or prolonged bleeding, severe abdominal pain, or symptoms you're worried about while taking it. Seek urgent help (call 999 or go to A&E) for symptoms of a blood clot, such as sudden leg swelling and pain, chest pain, or breathlessness, or for a sudden severe headache or visual disturbance.
