Brief Answer:
Regestrone or Ovral will help.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
You can postpone your periods by taking norethisterone - Regestrone.
But it is advisable to use this drug only after a doctor’s prescription. It takes at least 72 hours to produce the complete effect. You can start taking it now.
You need to continue these tablets until the date for which you want your periods to be postponed.
Another option is starting regular birth control pills like Ovral.
I would advise you to consult your gynecologist who after ruling out all the contraindicating factors will prescribe you the agent best for you.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
