Ive been told to take gynaset twice a day for five days to trigger my period. If I stop taking it, will I get my period right away? Im planning to travel on the 18th and started the medication on the 5th. Will my period be finished by the time I need to leave, or should I keep taking the gynaset until my trip is over to push back the period? Could use some advice!

Periods are expected to start 2-7 days after stopping these tablets. In order to be sure to avoid periods during travel, you can take the tablets till the day of travel or until the day you complete your travel.

I'm taking Novelon for 21 days as prescribed by my doctor. My gynecologist told me to come in on the first day of my period, but I'm wondering how long it'll take to see improvement with my PCOS. Could you let me know what to expect?

Novelon is often prescribed to help regulate menstrual cycles and manage symptoms of PCOS. It may take a few cycles (usually 2-3 months) to see noticeable improvements in hormonal balance and menstrual regularity. It's important to follow up with your gynecologist for further guidance and monitoring as your treatment progresses.

I'm feeling kind of anxious about my wife's recent obstetrical scan. It showed a single live fetus in the cephalic position at 29 weeks with a mature grade III placenta in the upper segment. Is it still possible for us to go through a normal vaginal delivery with these findings?
