Norethisterone

Hi ,I was put on 5mg norethisterone in June 2014 and ended up on it for 9 months. My consultant decided that I needed to come off the high doses and take Noriday instead. I was very happy to do that as even though they stopped theb bleeding and pain I was having loads of side effects. I was weaned off over a month and have been on Noriday for the last 3 months. I have had a lot of cramps since only being on Noriday and over the last week or so I have had the period from hell, the bleeding is not too heavy but really clotty and I have been in agony. I am really worried about how long this might last, will my body eventually adjust?
