Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
I can understand your concerns,
As you told that she had i-pill on 2nd.
In my opinion if you do not want her period on 5 th December. She should take tablet regestrone 5mg BD, 5days before her expected date and should continue till date she wants to postpone her period.
And for contraception,she can take tablet ovral-l from the 5th day of her period.In your case,after stopping regestrone,shw will ger period in 2-3 days.so from 5th day of her menses,she should start contraceptive.
Hope it helps.
Feel free to ask further.
Thanks.

Her period is now on which will get over by 13th november. Can she start taking ovaral l by 1st dec or 5th dec considering the fact that intercourse will now be done directly on 5th dec?
Brief Answer:
Should start from 5th day of her period date.
Detailed Answer:

Sorry for late response.
She has to start ovral-l from 5th day of her period.so she should start it from 15th November.
If she takes after 5th day of her period, it will not be effective in preventing pregnancy.
Hope it helps.
