Patient's question:
Daughter has to take the college entrance exam in these days. It happens that she has something important during the days her menstruation comes. So she wants to take a gynecological medicine orally every day to postpone the onset of menstruation. She wants to ask if one pill of gynecological medicine per day is enough to postpone menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if you plan to postpone your menstrual period, it is recommended to take 200 mg per day, two tablets each day, for five consecutive days. After stopping the medication, wait for three to seven days. You can also take it according to your own method. If there is a small amount of bleeding during this period, it is better to take two tablets. Artificially altering the menstrual cycle may lead to menstrual disorders. It is recommended to rest and maintain personal hygiene, avoid smoking, alcohol, spicy, and cold foods. Take the medication one week before the expected onset of menstruation, without missing any doses, and your period should arrive about one week after stopping the medication.
