Thank you everyone for their replies and advice! It's nice to hear about experiences. 🙂 For those of you who have taken the delay tablets (especially the Boots ones - Norethisterone, I think) - do you know if are they safe to mix with alcohol? I think I'll find out when I do the online consultation, but I was wondering if you knew. @Bike_Like_A_Mum @phillyfaddle @amfy I was also considering taking the delay tablets this month, but my period came earlier than planned... so too late for me now! And I totally relate to not wanting anything hormonal @hannahlmoore, I'm the exact same! Had a bad experience will hormonal pill and since then I've avoided any hormonal treatments... but I think in this case it's worth a try. It's only temporary so I'm hopping it will be ok. Fingers crossed there aren't any horrid side effects!

Thank you for your reply! Sorry you had a bad experience with the delay pills. 😞 I was looking at getting different ones from Boots (I don't remember the name but it starts with N), but it's good to know to try to avoid Provera. Do you know anything about mixing the tablets with drinking alcohol? Is it safe? I'm happy to hear you still had a great time, I think I will too, but still worried. It's nice to hear about positive experiences!

Hi all! First time Glastonbury punter here. 😁 I'm very excited!! But also stressed... I just got my period - 1 month before the festival, which means if I let nature takes its course, I'll get it bang in the middle of glasto next month. 🥲 Is anyone in the same boat? I've been to festivals before and I've been very lucky that my period has never come at the same time... so I'm really nervous because, as with most people, it really affects my mood, my energy levels, and general wellbeing... I was wondering if we could start a discussion about how to deal with periods at Glastonbury - advice, tips and tricks on how to stay comfy and still enjoy the festival. It would be so helpful to hear any stories/ experiences of 'surviving' glasto with a period. Especially positive stories would be great! 🙂 Also, does anyone have any experience with taking the period delay tablets from Boots? Any side effects? Do you recommend it? Thank you! PS: It's also my first time posting on a form like this, sorry in advance if I'm not using the right lingo! 😅 There may be other threads/topics about this too, if so, please share. 🙂
