You should take a look at the System.DateTime and System.TimeSpan
documentation.

Hi! You can use someting like

DateTime dt = DateTime.Today.AddMonths(-2).AddDays(-3);

//Today 2 months before and 3 days

or

DateTime dt = DateTime.Today.AddYears(-1).AddMonths(-2).AddDays(-3);

//One year , two months and 3 days before.

Have a look at the DateTime object, then its AddDays, AddWeeks, AddMonths
and AddYears methods. To go back in time, you just "add" a negative amount
of units.
 
Have you looked at all the Add* methods in the DateTime structure. Just
pass a negative value if you want dates before the specified date.

DateTime.AddXXX

EG current date minus one month and 6 days.

DateTime.Now.Date.AddMonths(-1).AddDays(-6)
