Stopped Deviry 6 days ago, no period yet. Why?

Question

Hi doctor,

My periods are irregular. I have a holiday planned, so I wanted to prepone my periods. My last periods was exactly a month and a half back. So, I started taking Deviry tablet, twice a day for five days before my period was due. It has been six days now, but I still did not get my periods. What am I supposed to do?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

When are you going for your vacation? Usually, after stopping the tablets, you should get your period within 15 days.

Hi,

Periods can never get preponed. The periods can be postponed easily. You stopped taking the tablets six days back, so you might get bleeding anytime now. It is really difficult to tell the exact time. But, I suggest you try taking tablet Primolut N (Norethisterone) 5 mg three times a day, from today till you come back. This might help you postpone the periods. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicine after their consent.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I have already mentioned that it is difficult to assure anything, as you had already stopped taking the tablets. I would have assured you 100 % if you had consulted me before taking Deviry (Medroxyprogesterone) or even stopping Deviry. Let us not lose hope. Try taking Primolut without missing a single tablet and see. If you do not take anything now, you will be having your period during the vacation.
