hiii,
Welcome to HCM.
Noriday is a progesterone only birth control pill. If you take these tabs on regular basis on scheduled time for 28 days,then side effects are less due to this and more effective.
But if you take those irregularly or incompletely (like you stopped after 2 wks), then side effects like irregular bleeding,delayed period,breast pain,headache are more common and less effective on contraception if not use other method.
So you have to wait for 1-2 wks from due date for coming period and if not come,then do urine pregnancy test again to rule out pregnancy.
Check the result and consult with your doctor.
Be well and tc.
