Taking gelatine capsules to delay one's periods
Question
I am going for Umrah on 1 April 2018 with my husband and son. My gynecologist has prescribed utrogesan capsules to delay my period. It contains gelatine. Am I allowed to use it or should I get alternate medication?
Answer
Try your best to get alternate medication.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
