I'm planning a week-long trip to Goa and I'm worried because my period is supposed to start around the same time. I really want to enjoy the beach without any hassle. Is there a safe way to delay my period for this trip? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

You can consider taking Norethisterone (brand name Regestrone) to delay your periods. It is a commonly used medication for period delay. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any medication.

I've been in a situation where I had unprotected sex recently, and I'm wondering if it's okay to take the i-pill again. I used it last on June 22nd, so would taking it today be alright? I'm just anxious about using it twice in one month.

yeah it's safe to take 2nd pill within in a month
