    Question

    I want to know if there is anyway to prevent having my period for a particular month or delay it or a week or so. I am planning a trip with my boyfriend next month. It would be really inconvenient to have my period during that time. Thank you.

    Answer

    That is a great conversation to have with your doctor. There are ways - so make an appointment!
