Tatyana asks:
Good afternoon
I am taking Yarina, I have a trip to the sea coming up soon, I need to delay my period by 2-3 days. I consulted with a doctor, he said that in my case there are no contraindications. I studied the instructions for the drug: “In order to delay the onset of menstruation, you must start taking the next package of Yarina immediately after finishing the current package. You can continue taking tablets from this package for as long as the woman wishes or until the package runs out. If a woman wants menstruation to begin, it is necessary to stop taking the pills. While taking Yarina from the second package, spotting or bleeding may be observed on the days of taking the pills. The next package must be started after the usual 7-day break." I had a question: should I start after 7 - a day break, a new 3rd pack or should I continue drinking the 2nd?
After a 7-day break, you must start taking a new 3 pack. The drug must be used strictly according to the schedule at the prescribed time.
Olga asks:
Good afternoon I have the following question: how can I postpone my period for just a couple of days?

Hello, please tell me, if I insert a vaginal diaphragm (cap) during my period, can I “leak” during sex?
Ekaterina asks:
Hello! I take Yarina, menstruation comes on the 3rd day during the 7th break. If, after finishing the current package, I take just one tablet from the next package, will my period still come on the 3rd day of the break? I only need to win one day. One more question: the packaging does not indicate which tablet you should start taking for the first time, as is indicated, for example, on the packaging of Tri-Regol. Is there really no difference which one to start with?

Ekaterina comments:
Thank you for such a prompt response. But I would still like to clarify. “...it is necessary to continue taking the contraceptive drug continuously, withdrawal bleeding will begin after stopping taking the pills” - immediately after stopping taking the pills or, as usual, it happens to me - on the 3rd day of the break? The fact is that I am faced with a choice: take one tablet or three. Of course, I would like to minimize disruptions to the harmonious background. Or will taking 3 tablets have no negative impact on your health?
And one more thing: it turns out that all tablets are equivalent in content active substance. Then it is not necessary to follow the sequence of taking them?
The sequence is indicated for the convenience of taking the contraceptive drug, to make it easier to take the drug. It is not recommended to unnecessarily lengthen or shorten the duration of the menstrual cycle. If you continue to take the drug in a continuous regimen, you should be aware that breakthrough symptoms may occur during this period. uterine bleeding.

The fact of the matter is that I can’t guess the date “immediately after the start of menstruation” in advance, since the operation is planned a month in advance. so you need something to, for example, induce your period after 2 weeks. Then at the time of the operation they will definitely not be there.

How to delay your period if great events cannot be postponed. After all, many people want to set a wedding day with a one hundred percent guarantee and no longer worry about their cycle.
We have selected 4 different methods:
1 way to delay your period - mathematics!
You can calculate the number of days in the minimum cycle and the maximum. And look up to them. On days of delays, wait and see if you get lucky. Of course, this is not one hundred percent, but if you don’t want to use anything else, this is an excellent solution. And then rely only on nature.
2 way to delay your period using folk remedies
All known folk remedy is LEMON. It delays menstruation, but only by 1-2 days. At the same time, you need to absorb this vitamin C as much as possible. To be honest, I haven’t tried it on myself, but there are rumors.
3 way using wine
You can consider the opposite option, i.e. do not push back critical days, but rather bring them closer, call them earlier. The most safe means is red wine. It does bring the day of menstruation closer, but this is only in cases when your period is about to start any day now. I tried it on myself. It really works.
Method 4 - drugs that delay menstruation
Start taking birth control pills. You should take 1 tablet daily (if possible at the same time of day), starting from the first day of menstruation for 21 days. After this, observe a 7-day break without taking the drug, during which menstrual bleeding occurs. On the 8th day you should start taking the next 21 tablets. This way the cycle can be adjusted. When to start taking them, decide for yourself.
You can do it 3 months in advance, or you can do it in the wedding month, but just make sure that the seven-day break does not fall on your wedding day. If this happens, start taking the next 21 tablets without a seven-day break. This can only be done once a year!
Advice: At the time of writing, Mercilon, Marvilon and Novinet were distributed - these are low hormonal pills without side effects But before taking birth control pills, be sure to consult your doctor. It is necessary to exclude contraindications to their use. Although, from my own experience, I was convinced that doctors in regular clinics recommend those birth control pills that are now taken by the majority or new types, but whether they suit you or not, you will see after three months of use. Therefore, it is better to contact paid clinics, in which they must at least force you to take tests and, based on the results, recommend certain hormonal pills.
Nowadays tablets with a minimum of side effects are being produced and we can say for sure that after one month of use you will not see any side effects. So, if possible, it is better to use contraceptives. This will give you 100% confidence.
About well-being women's health indicates a regular menstrual cycle. But there are situations in life when it is necessary to artificially delay the onset of menstruation. How to delay your period for a few days if you are going on vacation or important event? There are safe methods, but the consequences can be unpredictable.
Before you find out what to do to make your period come later, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the negative consequences of forcibly shifting the start date of your cycle. Outside interference in physiological process may lead to the following problems:

- there is a delay in subsequent periods;
- is happening pathological change endometrial conditions;
- metabolic disease.
resort to delay critical days not recommended for women with an unstable cycle, with heart disease, prone to venous insufficiency suffering from increased thrombus formation.
Methods
How to delay your period for a couple of days is safe for your health? It is possible to increase the menstrual cycle by 2-3 days in the following ways: by influencing the ratio of estrogen and progesterone in the blood, and by reducing the amount of menstrual flow to a minimum. These methods are used taking into account the woman’s general health, her age, and gynecological history.
OK
All women taking such medications probably know how to postpone their periods using oral contraceptives. Doctors consider three-phase drugs (COCs), which have 3 types of tablets per package, to be the safest.
Each type is taken at a specific phase of the menstrual cycle, because they contain estrogen and progesterone in different concentrations. To delay the onset of discharge, you need to take only the third phase tablets. Special attention During this period, additional means of protection during sexual intercourse should be given.
If a woman has never taken three-phase contraceptives before, then she should do the following:
- consult a gynecologist and voice your desire to delay your period;
- buy a drug prescribed by a doctor;
- start taking pills 3-4 days before the expected start of the menstrual cycle.
Monophasic contraceptives are used a little differently - they remove the seven-day break. That is, they start drinking the next package of tablets immediately after finishing the previous one. Additional funds no protection is required for such a cycle delay.
Quite often, women are prescribed progestins to delay their periods. These drugs contain synthetic or natural progesterone. An increase in the concentration of the hormone in the blood causes suppression of ovulation and strengthening of the endometrium, which delays the moment of detachment of the mucous layer of the uterus.
“Primolut-nor”, “Exluton”, “Orgametril”, “Norkolyut” - these tablets begin to be taken in the second phase of the menstrual cycle, that is, 10-14 days before the probable date of the onset of discharge. In this case, the delay can last up to 10 days.
Progestins for delaying menstruation are contraindicated in women with endometriosis, fibroids, tumors in the uterus and ovaries, inflammatory processes in the pelvis (endometritis, cystitis, adnexitis, etc.).
Hemostatic
Is it possible to shift the menstrual cycle with drugs that increase blood viscosity? Theoretically, this is possible, because the principle of action of such drugs is based on reducing blood clotting time and strengthening the vascular wall. For this purpose, “Etamzilat”, “Ditsinon”, “Vikasol” and Calcium gluconate are used.
But such a delay in the menstrual cycle has a lot of side effects, including systemic circulatory disorders. Therefore, the funds are used strictly after delivery general analysis blood as prescribed by a doctor in an individually selected dose. You can use this method once a year.
Vitamin C also has a hemostatic effect. It should be taken in the maximum recommended doses 10-14 days before the arrival of menstruation. Just don’t forget that even vitamins have contraindications for use.
Folk
It is possible to shift the menstrual cycle using folk methods that do not affect hormonal background female body. Most in a safe way is to take a nettle decoction.
A strong hemostatic solution is prepared as follows: add 5 tablespoons of dry nettle leaves to half a liter of water and boil over low heat for 5-7 minutes. Then the resulting decoction is infused for half an hour, wrapped in a warm blanket. You need to drink it at once about 1-2 days before the start of menstruation. If scanty discharge have already begun, then using nettle is prohibited.
Others also help delay menstruation folk recipes, For example:
- A decoction of parsley root or leaves.
You need to take one tablespoon of finely chopped parsley rhizome or 50 grams of herb and pour one glass of boiling water. Mix the resulting mass, wrap it in a towel and leave for 2-3 hours. Then the solution is filtered and drunk 20 grams 3 times a day 3-5 days before the scheduled start of menstrual flow.
- Water pepper decoction.
To prepare the medicine, you need to take 40 grams of herb and pour hot water(500 grams). The solution is placed on low heat and simmered for 5-10 minutes. Afterwards it is infused for 3-4 hours and filtered. You need to drink 100 ml of the decoction before meals three times a day 4-6 days before menstruation.
- A decoction of wild strawberry leaves.
To make the product you will need one tablespoon of fine raw materials and one liter hot water. Place the mixture on the fire and bring to a boil. Then turn off the broth and leave for 1 hour. You need to drink it 2-3 days before the start of your period, 50 ml three times a day. Strawberry decoction is quite dangerous, so you should not abuse the recommended doses.
A delay in your cycle is a big risk, so before taking pills to make your period come later, you should definitely consult your doctor. Reckless spontaneous intake of hormonal or folk remedies threatens the development of a neurotic process in the uterus.

If the question of how to move your period a week later is very important to you, go to the doctor and consult with him. He will help you choose the best way, and if there are contraindications, he will prescribe medications that facilitate menstruation.
One of the main features of the female body is its ability to self-cleanse, which occurs monthly during menstruation. Unfortunately, this process cannot be controlled, so it happens that critical days come at the wrong time, often destroying a woman’s plans for this period. It is impossible to completely avoid this, but there are several options to delay your period for a few days.
Postponing the onset of menstruation by a couple of days is much easier than, for example, shifting the dates by a week. Exist several proven and relatively safe methods that will help a woman achieve her desired goal:
Medical methods
If a woman is wondering how to postpone her period by a week or more, traditional methods will not help her in solving this problem.
One of the few ways to move your period a week later is suitable for the fair sex who regularly take birth control pills.
In this case, in order to achieve the desired result, the girl just needs to give up the planned 7-day break between taking the pills.
There is also a way to delay the arrival of menstruation by taking contraceptive drugs three days before they start. Contraceptives will only play the role of a hemostatic agent, and not a contraceptive, so during this period it is recommended to engage only in safe sex.
The method is 100% guaranteed to work, and can only be used with the permission of the attending physician. We are talking about taking gestagen drugs or their artificial analogs of progestins, which allow you to control the arrival of critical days. They should be taken no later than five days before the start of menstruation, and should be stopped on the day when they usually end.
Another fairly popular drug that allows you to cause a delay is Dicynon. Before taking this medication, you should definitely consult a gynecologist to avoid the risk of harming your body. The same goes for others medical methods postpone critical days.
It is extremely important that the woman is examined by a gynecologist, who will assess the condition of her body and, if there are no problems, indicate the name of the medicine that is suitable for her.
Reducing the duration of menstruation
The duration of menstruation is also a fairly pressing problem for modern women. Many girls cannot wait for it to go away on its own, and therefore are exploring ways to shorten their periods to 3 days, or even less, thereby freeing them from the burden of experiencing constant discomfort, often accompanied by pain.
Most effective ways how to reduce duration:
- Decoctions. Raspberry leaf tea can help reduce bleeding if you start drinking it a few days before your period. Ginger tea has similar action, which is enhanced when sugar cane is added to it.
- Contraceptives. The use of oral contraceptives often leads to the fact that the duration of critical days is reduced from the usual 5-7 to 3. However, before using this method, you should consult a gynecologist.
- Sport. Regular exercise can also have an impact on a woman’s body and her menstrual cycle and lead to the fact that the duration of menstruation will be reduced to 3-4 days. To achieve this result, you need to spend at least 1 hour in the gym every day and be more active in your daily life.
But it is worth remembering that unauthorized use of the listed medications can be harmful to health, so you should not take unjustified risks.
A consultation with a doctor will help determine how a woman’s hormones work, whether she is allergic to the components of the drugs, and whether it is possible to artificially stop her menstruation without subsequent negative consequences.
