Brief Answer:
Postponement is a better option.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing to us about it.

I can certainly understand your concern, though.

It is better to postpone your menses rather than prepone it because when you prepone your period it is very difficult to anticipate when you will resume your next period bleeding.

Thus, you should go for a postponement of your period.

There are medicines available on gynecologist prescription which you can take to postpone your period.

Hope it is useful, feel free to ask more questions.

Good luck.
Regards
Dr.Richa

Thank you for that..but since my exams get over on the 8th of next month, is it advisable to postpone them for two weeks?
And if I wish to prepone them, is there any tablet?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay in my response.

Yes, you can postpone your period for 2 weeks, but not more than that.

Primolut-N is the drug (prescription drug) use for preponement of your period after gynecologist consultation.

Hope it is useful, feel free to ask more.

Good luck.
