Brief Answer:
Tablet norethisterone advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
You can take tablet norethisterone 5 mg twice a day starting from today till you want to delay your periods.
Don't miss any tablet as it can cause spotting in between.
It safe for both mother and baby so can be taken by lactating mother.
Take care
