I am not a female, but. Based on your age and history you should be able to reliably determine when your next period should be, my wife can. And, depending on that predictability you can and should schedule your medical so it doesn't interfere with your period.

Best of luck!

I feel you anxiety. When my wife was processing there at SLEC, we had a app that would keep track of menstrual cycles and my wife was pretty much spot on for her times. Now here is the monkey wrench, my teenage step-daughter was also processing with mom. So here we are watching the app and trying to figure out between the two what week we would have a truce so they both could go to SLEC at the same time as they were from Mindanao and they wanted to go together to save on costs. In the end we were able to get past this just by using a little tool like the app.

Best thing to do is continue to sort through this with your calendar and schedule accordingly. Good luck

That is what SLEC states, that they can't do a complete medical during your period and you will need to return... not much you can do about it.

Yes you cannot do the medical if you have your period, they will not allow you to proceed with vitals- physical-etc. You can do some tests such as xray, blood draw, immunization interview- that's about it.

So better to do it 1 week before or after your period. My eldest daughter had to come back for all the tests on day 2 because of this.

Getting married on Oct 15? you have more than enough time my dear. breath a little.. :)
