Brief Answer:
Deviry is a better choice
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
I agree with the fact that you should start the medicines from Aug 25th. The two medicines prescribed to you are essentially the same generic drugs. You can start either. Deviry is easily available and cheaper. Make sure you don't miss a dose of it otherwise you may start bleeding.
Wish you good luck.

Brief Answer:
either drug is ok to use
Detailed Answer: XXXXXXX
As I stated already both drugs are essentially the same. They are both the same in content-a hormone called progestin . It's just that deviry is cheaper. You can take either.
You have to start both and end both similarly.
Most people prefer deviry, because it's cheaper for long term use. You will need to buy 28 tabs for 14 days . You can take regestrone also if its not a problem for you. Normally i prescribe deviry because of the reasons I mentioned . There will be no bleeding if you take it properly and don't miss a dose.
Hope I answered your query.
Regards
