Hallow Dear,
If you have started Norethisterone pills a week before the expected date of your menses, then your menses will be postponed till you are consuming the pills. After discontinuing them, you will get withdrawal bleeding within 4-7 days of discontinuation of the pills. Then the first day of the withdrawal bleeding should be considered as the first day of your menses and the subsequent menses will be shifted accordingly.
No, cold drinks will not affect the action of Norethisterone. Just take care that the drinks you are taking do not increase your motility of the intestines lest the risk of quick expulsion of the medicine and thus improper absorption and action. Too much of soda can do this.
I hope this solves your doubts.
