okay,
so im going to a music fesival in june, and i have to camp for approximatly a week. i am due to start my period half way through that week. so is there anyway that i can prevent my period just for that month? otherwise it will make things very difficult. or have i left it too late? (im from the UK)

It has to be the pill that has equal amounts of progesterone and estrogen. so all the pills will be the same color - like alesse. if you are on it or antoher pill, instead of taking the sugar pills where your period would be, jsut start taking the next package right away.

But I'm not totally for sure if all of the above is exactly factual, so you may want to research those options yourself, rather than taking solely my word for it.
