As a pharmacist, I must emphasize that the use of birth control pills such as Yaz to postpone menstruation should only be done under the supervision of a gynecologist. If you are not able to make a face-to-face visit, I attach a link to the online teleconsultation:

Yaz is not a medication intended for emergency use to delay menstruation, especially if you have never used this type of preparation before.
Manipulating your menstrual cycle can affect your body's health and hormonal balance.
Yaz is a combined contraceptive pill containing ethinylestradiol (a synthetic oestrogen) and drospirenone (a progestin). It works by inhibiting ovulation by blocking the release of an egg from the ovary. This is the main mechanism for preventing pregnancy. Yaz also changes the consistency of cervical mucus, making it thicker and less permeable to sperm, making it harder for sperm to reach the egg. It also affects the uterine mucosa, making it less friendly to the possible implantation of a fertilized egg.
Yaz is taken at a fixed time every day for 24 days, followed by 4 days of taking placebo tablets. Menstrual bleeding usually occurs during this time.
You can check the availability of Yaz through the shops and book it at the pharmacy of your choice and pick it up upon presentation of your prescription:
