Hi
After stopping norethisterone, usually the period begins in 2-3 days. But it may take an additional day or two for period to occur in some individuals. I would have recommended my patient to wait and watch for another 2 days. If the period still does not appear, I would advice to contact the specialist. Hope the above information helps you. Thanks.
