What Causes Delayed Periods While On Norethindrone?

I have been on norethindrone 0.35 mg for 27 days now, haven t missed a dosage and I ve still not had a period. I have PCOS and this is the first time I have ever taken a bc that I haven t started my period by at least the third week. Does it take a while to make a person start or should I consult my dr before continuing?
