Q: How to deregister iMessage if I can't use the old SIM card?

I traveled to another country and used a temporary SIM card with my iPhone 6S.

Now I'back home, inserted my regular SIM card but iMessage keeps trying to register with the temporary number I used abroad.

Although I still have the temporary SIM card, it's useless in my country and therefore I cannot receive the confirmation code to deregister the temporary number.

How can I reset iMessage or let it know I need to register with my local number and not the temporary one?

Tried everything and read a number of forums but nothing seems to work.

iPhone 6s, iOS 10, null
