Hello,

I have gone through the query and understood your concern. Meprate will help postpone a menstrual period if used appropriately. You will see the withdrawal bleeding 3 to 7 days after completion of the course. The medication is Medroxyprogesterone, that has been shown to be tolerated better than Norethindrone.

Hope your query has been answered. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shanti Vennam
