Treatment Options

Period delays can occur for various reasons, including stress, changes in diet or exercise, hormonal imbalances, and certain medications. Occasionally, underlying health conditions may also affect menstrual regularity. Understanding the cause is important to determine the appropriate approach to managing a delayed period.

Treatments for period delay may be considered in specific situations, such as temporary hormonal regulation or when managing symptoms related to menstrual irregularities. It is advisable to consult a prescriber to discuss your individual circumstances and explore suitable options.
