Hello
Thank you for asking the question.
You want to make your period early. For that whenever you take hormonal treatment, bleeding doesn't occur until you continues the treatment. Bleeding occurs whenever you stop the treatment that is known as withdrawal bleeding.
So if you start the norethisterone then whenever you want bleeding then stop the drug and you will get the bleeding.
So my advice is take drug as per your preference and date adjustment.
Hope this will helpful to you.
