Medications are prescribed by a licensed physician and dispensed by a licensed pharmacy. Packaging and brand may vary. A board‑certified OB‑GYN will review your answers before any prescription is issued.
Delay Your Period Safely
Norethindrone acetate is a synthetic hormone that temporarily prevents the hormonal signal that triggers your period. Once you stop taking it, your period typically starts within 2–3 days. This is a short-term option — it is not a contraceptive and does not prevent pregnancy.
Common Reasons to Delay Your Period
- Upcoming event, travel, or athletic competition that falls on your expected period
- Religious or cultural observance that requires period delay
- One-time, short-term cycle management
