Question : Hi Doctor,

I wanted to postpone my periods due to some XXXXXXX on August25th.

So, I have taken 1 cycloreg tablet on August20th. Last month my period time was Jul 23rd.

but today(August21st) I am having little red color bleed. So can I proceed to take cycloreg tablet today as well to postpone my periods or even if take the tablet will I get period?

Thanks

Brief Answer:
No use of cycloreg

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
The periods are postponed by the cycloreg tablets only when it is started at least 5 days prior to the expected periods.
Since the spotting has already started, it is unlikely. that the periods will stop or get delayed by the cycloreg tablets.
So, I will advise you not to continue the tablets any further.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Regards
