Spotting with Norethisterone

Hi all!

Has anyone experienced spotting whilst taking Norethisterone during the first phase of IVF?

I just found the lightest bit of spotting, I’m on day 6 of taking Norethisterone and will be stopping on the 26th so am not expecting a period until after that.

I think the spotting is probably just one of those things and I imagine (hope) it will just disappear, but I thought I would ask if anyone else has experienced this? Would be nice to hear about it if so for a little reassurance.

I’m gonna monitor and will ring my fertility team on Monday.

Thanks all in advance and happy Sunday :-)

Hey, in the end it was literally only there once when I went to the toilet so I think it was just a random occurrence and nothing to worry about. Thanks for your message. All seems otherwise to be as expected :-)
