Question

I'm worried because my period is supposed to start right around my brother's wedding day, and I really want to delay it. Is there a safe way to do this, and how would it affect me? I'm not sure what medication options are available or if there are any natural methods I could try. Can you help me figure out the best way to postpone my periods just for this occasion?

Generally, progesterone tablets are used for this purpose...you should start 5 days prior to the expected date till you want to postpone.10 mg tablets are used twice daily or 5 mg thrice daily and you will get withdrawal bleeding within 7 days when you stop tablets...You may have a heavier period after stopping the tablet.consult for nearby gynae for the same
