Brief Answer:
Suggested course of action.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
It is already the 4th of December.
You may have your period anyday.
Let me explain how alteration of period dates is possible.
Tablets containing progesterone ( eg. Meprate, Deviry ) are given ( generally 10 mg twice a day ) for 5 days.
After that, bleeding occurs within a week.
So if you start the tablets tomorrow - 5th of December, you can take them until the 10th of December, and then you will bleed anytime after 10th of December , within a week.
But it is very close to the date of your period, there is a chance that you may get your period inspite of taking the drug.
Bear that in mind, and you can start the medication tomorrow.
These medications are best taken after consulting your doctor, I have just suggested the usual dosage.
Take care.
