Norethisterone

I stopped taking Norethisterone on Friday. The clinic said to ring when I started to bleed, I haven't yet, despite the nurse saying I would start a couple of days after stop taking the pills. I am due to start stims on Wednesday will this put back me starting my cycle?

Has this happened to anyone else?

It took me about 5 days to start bleeding after stopping taking it!! I literally started the day before I was due to start injections xx

Did your clinic tell you what would happen if you didn't start your bleed before your injections? I'm concerned all my dates will change and I'll have to rearrange the time with work. xx

Hi Jhenderson. A bleed doesn't always happen straight away, but should be here any day. If it doesn't start, the clinic will probably scan you to see what's going on. Might delay you a couple of days, but I'm sure the cycle will still go ahead. Good luck! Diane
