Brief Answer:
Primolut N can help.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Primolut N tablets contain the active ingredient norethisterone, which is a synthetic hormone similar to the naturally occurring sex hormone, progesterone. This medication is used to prepone the periods in women who are not pregnant.
You can start taking the tablets now 5mg thrice a day for 5 days. The periods will start 2-3 days after you finish taking the tablets.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
