Hi
Thanks for trusting healthcaremagic for your health issues.

No duphaston can not be used to postpone periods. For that you have to start oral contraceptive pill (containing estradiol & medroxyprogesteron) from 5th day of last menstrual cycle. You should continue this pill without interruption till you have to postpone menstruation (in your scenario till 10 th december). Menstrual bleeding usually starts after 5-7 days of stopping the pills.

I hope this information will help you.

Regards
Dr. hiren
