Decapeptyl, spotting and norethisterone

I am currently in my 8th month of decapeptyl treatment, which apart from some minor side effects, is working well for me. One of the side effects I have is spotting or a bloody discharge. I am going on holiday in June, and wondered, if I was to take a low dose of norethisterone , would this stop the discharge and spotting? as I want to be able to swim etc. Also, if I did, would I then have a withdrawal bleed when I stopped taking the norethisterone, despite being on decapeptyl? Thanks :)
