Hello welcome to healthcaremagic.

I can understand your problem. as you are not taking birth control pills presently. So these pills will not help in postponing the period after starting that dose. For postponement you can take tab. primolut N after consultation. birth control pill will help when you are taking regularly and bleeding occurs sudden after stoppage of these pills. I will suggest you to follow up with detailed history or consult with gynaecologist for detailed examination.

I think this will clarify your concerns. Thank you.

Take care.
