get startedWe offer Norethisterone period delay tablets
Period delay tablets — feel at ease
If you want to be period-free for a big event or holiday we can prescribe tablets. The tablets contain a synthetic version of the hormone progesterone. Periods are triggered every month by a drop in progesterone levels. By keeping your hormone level high, you can delay your period for up to 17 days. If treatment is appropriate for you, we can prescribe tablets with no need for an appointment.

We offer the period delay tablets Norethisterone / Utovlan / Primolut N
Norethisterone is a generic medication name. Your pharmacist may supply you with a branded version, such as Utovlan or Primolut N, depending on stock availability.
Although different names, please don’t worry, they’re the same medication (Norethisterone) and all work in the same way. If you have any questions about this, please discuss it with your in store pharmacist who will be happy to help.
