Hello,
Gestin Tablet is a synthetic progesterone. It is given for 5 days to bring about withdrawal bleeding. Withdrawal bleeding usually occurs 48 hours after stopping the drug to up to 7 days. Thus, your wife should use Gestin tablets for 5 days and then stop the treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
