Brief Answer:
You can use norethisterone.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,


You can use norethindrone (norethisterone) three times daily 3-4 days before periods start.
You can use it for some days till you finish the holidays and stop it.
The period will start after 3-4 days after stopping it.
Also if you are using birth control pills start another new package as soon as you finish the last active tablet .
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
