Hello
Postponement of menstruation :
Progestins can be used to prolong the luteal phase ( as in your case ) of menstrual cycle and thus to postpone the menstruation .
Since your period just 4-5 days away so you will have to take NORETHISTEONE (5-10 mg ) only a few days before the due date.
Dose : one tablet thrice in day ,till you require .
If you want injection get hydroprogesterone caproate 250 mg I/M along with small doses of norethistrone orally .
This is also very good combination .
So take as you wish .
Good luck.
