How can I delay my period?

When an egg is fertilized, that is called pregnancy. A sperm can swim and it can live for a little while outside the body. Pregnancy may occur if any sperm gets into your vagina. Keep an eye on strange symptoms such as missed periods or feeling sick (nausea). If you’re concerned, take a pregnancy test to put your mind at ease. 

It is perfectly natural for blood flow to be inconsistent during a menstrual cycle. Sometimes it may be lighter with less cramping. It’s quite common to experience a fever and body aches while menstruating – this doesn’t necessarily mean that you are pregnant. However, if you want to make sure, take a pregnancy test after your period ends. If your symptoms are worrying you, keep yourself hydrated and get plenty of rest.

Your symptoms point to pelvic organ prolapse­, a condition where pelvic muscle­s weaken. This causes ute­rus, bladder or bowel to bulge into vagina, causing discomfort. For re­lief, try pelvic floor exe­rcises - these stre­ngthen muscles. You could also use a pe­ssary device to support organs. If case is se­vere, surgery may he­lp.

Taking the i-pill might result into hormonal disturbances in your body which in turn might disrupt your menstrual cycle. It is always recommendable that you see your doctor before taking any drugs for contraception purposes.
