Brief Answer:
You can use hormone preparations for this.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
If your period date was 25th April and you have not the periods till now then you can take hormonal tablets to start your periods in next 7-8 days.
For this Primolut N is given twice daily for 5 days. After stopping the drug usually periods start in 3 to 4 days. Its use is associated with side effects as nausea, vomiting, tiredness, headache etc.

You can discuss this with a Gynaecologist regarding this and get a prescription for the same.

Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
