Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Once started, menstrual bleeding is unlikely to stop with what so ever drug you attempt.Even Duphaston may be effective for a day or two & will again start bleeding.
This increases the hormonal imbalance & would affect the effect gained with previous days.
So don't attempt such unscientific way to stop bleeding. I am sorry, but you should start for avoiding menses at such holy place... far before you start.
consult your treating doctor for more specific advise.
thanks.
