Hi, I’m starting a short protocol IVF, been told to start Norethisterone tablets on day 21- but have started a day early (day 20) because of a mistake on nurse’s part. She re-assured it shouldn’t make a difference but I still worry! Any opinions?

Thank you

I think it should be fine. Some clinics use norethisterone, others use the pill. It's just to control your cycle so different people would be taking it for different lengths of time anyway.

Thanks

It’s fine it’s just to delay your bleed so they can control what day you start injecting. I took norethisterone a day early and the nurse just told me to take 2 instead of 3 for the last 2 days so I still took it for 10 days
