The ruling on a woman using pills to prevent her monthly period during Ramadan and during 'Umrah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The sister Umm Ram says: Is it permissible for a woman to take a period suppressant for the sake of 'Umrah or fasting? And what is the stronger position among the scholars' opinions on this?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that if the pills do not affect her health and do not leave a negative impact on her health; there is no harm in that. However, it is better if she consults a doctor and refers to a doctor regarding this. Yes.
