Efficacy of Norcolut tablet bought in 2016

I’m getting my period soon and I want to delay it as I have a beach trip coming up. I have an old Norcolut tablet that I bought in 2016, is it okay to take it now? I’m scared that it won’t be effective. On the packaging it says that it will expire on 9/2021
