Brief Answer:
START PRIMOLUT-N AGAIN.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

In this situation, I suggest you to start Norethisterone Tab again (like Primolut- N) WITHOUT awaiting for coming period to AVOID mess up. It should be taken twice daily and continued till the completion of your spiritual tour (max 2 weeks).

It is the BEST thing you can do to avoid your upcoming period. Your period will resume within 7 to 10 days after stopping them. Don't be worried.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and happy journey.

Regards,
Dr S Patra

Brief Answer:
YOU CAN START MEDICINE FROM TOMORROW.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for your follow up query.

PREPONE of period can be done effectively if you start taking hormonal pill from the very beginning of cycle (D1). However, you have started lately. Combined hormonal pill is MORE effective in that case. It should be stopped 7 days before expected date.

Another thing, you CAN'T predict withdrawal bleeding (in PREPONE) within given time. It may be delayed or earlier which can mess your planning or tour.

POSTPONE of period is MORE SAFE in comparison to PREPONE. Your planning or tour will be successful with this method. After that, you can get period easily when stopping hormonal pill.

Hope, I have answered your all queries. Kindly, close the discussion.

All the best and good luck.

Regards,
Dr S Patra
