FAQ

    The course of Utovlan to delay your period is taken over a maximum of 17 consecutive days to effectively delay your period. A course of Utovlan should not be taken more than once in four months. You should start the course of Utovlan three days before the first day of your period.

  • Can you take Utovlan and drink alcohol?

    It is fine to take Utovlan and drink alcohol. There are no adverse interactions reported, meaning it is safe to consume alcohol when taking this medication.

  • Can Utovlan be used as a contraceptive?

    Utovlan 5mg is not an effective contraceptive treatment. Utovlan will delay periods, but does not offer a solution for preventing pregnancy. You should continue to use other methods of contraception to prevent pregnancy when taking Utovlan. However, it is not safe to use Utovlan alongside a combined contraceptive pill.

  • How quickly does Utovlan work?

    Since Utovlan delays periods using the artificial hormone norethisterone, it requires some time to become active in your system.
