Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.

You want your periods to be preponed to september 8.

In my opinion, you can start tablet norethisterone 5mg twice a day from 30th august for 5 days.

Considering a delay of 2-3 days, you should get your periods on or before 8th September.

Take the tablets regularly without missing the dose.

Hope this helps.

Feel free to ask further.

Regards.
