Period Delay at Higher Crumpsall Pharmacy and Travel Clinic
Convenient and Discreet Support
If you’re looking to delay your period for a special occasion, holiday, or important event, Higher Crumpsall Pharmacy and Travel Clinic can help.
We offer a private consultation service and, where appropriate, can provide period delay tablets safely and conveniently — without the need to see a GP.

Why Might You Want to Delay Your Period?
Many people choose to delay their period for:
Holidays and travel (especially beach or active trips)
Religious or cultural reasons
Sports events or competitions
Weddings, honeymoons, or special occasions
Exams or other stressful times
Whatever your reason, our clinicians are here to offer discreet, professional support and advice.
How Does Period Delay Treatment Work?
We typically prescribe a hormone tablet called norethisterone, which works by temporarily delaying your period.
It is usually taken 3 days before your period is due
You continue taking it up to 3 times a day for up to 14 days
Your period will usually start a few days after you stop taking the tablets
This medication is generally safe and effective for short-term use, but it’s not suitable for everyone — especially those with a history of blood clots, liver disease, or certain other medical conditions. That’s why a consultation is important.

Our trained clinicians can assess your needs quickly and safely through a private consultation, either in person or over the phone. If the treatment is suitable, we can supply your medication directly from our clinic — no long waits or GP appointments needed.
