** Thanks for contacting with your health concern 1. This is a common demand in general practice to postpone menses, to avoid it during functions or traveling, so I usually prescribe my female patients: i. Tablet Regesterone [noresthisterone] 5 mg: 1 tablet twice daily which should be started at least 3 days before the menses, and continue as long as postponement is desired, but generally not more than 10 to 15 days. PS. you may consult a Gynecologist regarding the same or for other options like Tablet Ovral L [contraceptive pill and for postponement of menses] since the easiest and best ways to delay your periods involve birth control or other prescription medicines. ii. delaying periods is not a mean to guard against pregnancy. [unless you are on birth control pills or have a device like IUD], so take extra means of protection like the use of a condom.
