Hello ma'am and welcome.
There are medications available to help delay your periods, but this should only be taken while under the supervision of a doctor and should be taken after a consultation with a doctor. As there are a few facts that need to be discussed. The medication is called norethisterone and is not advised to be taken without a doctors prescription. Also, it is important to note that you have PCOD and so predicting the efficacy of this pill would be difficult.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
