Yes, you can delay menstruation by taking medication like Norethisterone.

Norethisterone is essentially a synthetic progesterone so started three days before menstruation it prevents the progesterone drop that would normally trigger menstruation to begin. This drug is normally prescribed by a doctor and you take it three times per day from three days before your period, you continue to take it until you want your period to start. Menstruation will normally occur within around 48 hours of stopping the pills, it can be heavier but that isn't always the case.

How postpone/delay period (menstruation)

(see below related link "How Postpone Period")

Often girls and women asking for changing dates of their periods because of swimming
parties, summer holidays, diving, very special meetings with boyfriends, sport competitions, etc. As this demand is existing, some pharmaceutical companies are trying to find harmless solutions. What are possibilities? - 1). extended-cycle oral contraception (if important evens are scheduled in advance), 2). gestagens (if events are planned unexpectedly) or 3). Birth Control pills in special extended regime (if person already using birth control pills at the time event is planned)

Norethisterone can be prescribed by your doctor and works well. It only needs to be taken 3 days before expected period and for as long as you wish to delay menstruation. This is the best option for women who aren't on continual hormonal birth control.

I think you mean Depo Provera. Many women stop menstruating while they receive this injection, which they get every 12 weeks.

A menstrual period should occur every 28 days. There are injections that can be given to a woman with underlying health problems, that could cause a woman to hemorrhage.

An extra active BCP will delay your period one day for each day you take an extra pill. It will also cause you period to come early is you do not take that last day's active pill.

Will taking Diane 35 may delay your period?

I'm also on Diane (protip Brenda-35 is exactly the same and half the price) and if you want to delay or even skip your period just skip the white (placebo) pills and take the next yellow (active) pill in the pack. FYI it's not unhealthy or dangerous for you to skip or delay your period for a month or two.

You should still get a period each month while on birth control. You will usually start your period during the week that you take your placebo pills, because they have no hormones in them. If you skip the placebo pills and start your active pills instead, this will delay your period.
