Waiting to start

Hi

I’m due to start stims on Friday however still no period. it’s been 3 days since I stopped Norethisterone. I was on 5mg tablets twice a day for 13 days.

For my 1st fresh cycle I didn’t have to down reg and for FET I had provera and bled within 3 days.

I just don’t want to delay things as I’ve arranged time off and been isolating for a week.

Can anyone tell me how long it took fro bleed after Norethisterone?

Last time it took five full days off norethisterone for my period to arrive. I have a feeling that when I did the long protocol a year ago (started but cancelled) it was more like a week, and 5-7 days was pretty typical for me when I was on the combined pill.

Thanks. I was roughly 3 days after provera. I’m just hoping it starts tomorrow or I’ve to contact clinic and they might delay.
