Brief Answer:
Medicine will not produce effect in 2 days.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
To prepone the periods you need to start taking the medicine around 10 days before the expected date of periods so that your periods finish by the date they were expected to start.
To delay your periods for a few days, synthetic progesterone preparations are recommended like medroxyprogesterone acetate which should be started at least five days before the expected date of your periods as these medicines take at least 72 hours to produce their complete effect.
You need to continue these tablets until the date for which you want your periods to be postponed.
At such a short notice it is difficult to alter the date of your periods with the help of medicines.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
