Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concerns.

Deviry is usually started 5-6 days before the expected date of periods.

How long does your periods usually last?

Kindly revert back with the answers to these questions.

Brief Answer:
no use of continuing the drug now.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the details.

Sorry for the delayed response.

You took the right dose but in my opinion, you started taking the drug late.

Due to this, the enough concentration of hormones would not have been achieved in the body to postpone the periods.

Since you have started with your periods now, unfortunately the drug will not help in postponing the periods now.

There is no use in continuing the drug now.

Hope this helps.

Feel free to ask further.

Congratulations for your wedding.
May you have a happy married life ahead.

Take care.
Thanks.

Brief Answer:
no drug to stop menses in between.

Detailed Answer:
Hi again.

Unfortunately, there is no drug which can stop periods in between.

Once the uterine lining starts shedding, it will stop on its own with your usual time.

I wish I could help in this.

Take care.
Thanks.
