A member asked:

Can i use the light yellow qlaira pills to delay my period? have never used pill before. if so, can i start 3d before to stop progesterone drop?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: You could use any combined oral contraceptives to delay your period but make sure you start the pack atleast 2 weeks before your period is expected (which is mid period). You can expect your next period when you are done with the pill pack. Hope this helps.
