Does Norethisterone Cause Pink Vaginal Discharge?
I had unprotected sex around 3 weeks ago just after my period ended. I normally have 3 weeks off then a week on I’m quite regular, however I have used norethisterone as I was due on whilst away, i have taken 4 tablets in 2 weeks as I keep forgetting....last one was taken around a week ago....I’m now due on but this mornin woke with an extremely pale pinkish discharge on wiping which I’ve never had before....could I be pregnant or will this be the side effects from the norethisterone

Hi,
Neither it is a side effect nor it is indicative of pregnancy. This is simply a withdrawal bleeding which usually occurs after stopping of the drug. Besides if you want to delay the menstruation contraceptive pills containing combination of low dose estrogen with progesteron are preferred. They also act as contraceptives.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
