** Thanks for contacting with your health concern 1. This is a common demand in general practice to postpone menses, to avoid it during functions or traveling, so I usually prescribe my female patients: i. Tablet Regesterone [noresthisterone] 5 mg: 1 tablet twice daily which should be started at least 3 days before the menses, and continue as long as postponement is desired, but generally not more than 10 to 15 days, and you might get your periods two or three days after you have stopped your medicine. PS. you may consult a Gynecologist regarding the same or for other options like Tablet Ovral L [contraceptive pill and for postponement of menses] since the easiest and best ways to delay your periods involve birth control or other prescription medicines. ii. delaying periods is not a mean to guard against pregnancy. [unless you are on birth control pills or have a device like IUD], so take extra means of protection like the use of a condom.
