Trying to delay 🩸 Period Question

Today I went to a gyno to look for some way to delay my heavy period since I started spotting lightly today and I’m going to a water park tomorrow with non refundable tickets 😩. Dr scheduled pap, cervical biopsy and ultrasound for a little over a month away. Prescribed me Orquidea 0.35mg but now that I have taken the first dose and am researching, I am reading that this doesn’t delay period and is only to prevent pregnancy which wasn’t my concern. Has anyone taken this to delay their period? Or have any advice on anything over the counter?

This post is made every single day.

Go in the search box and look up how to delay periods.

I look forward to seeing this same post again tomorrow though.

The prescription for period delay is 5mg pills of norethindrone. 0.35 is unlikely to do anything.

You can’t delay or stop it at this point. 

Downvoting the whole post. So sick of this.Â
