How Long Does Utovlan Take To Stop Period ?

My daughter was prescribed utovlan (norethistone) 5mg twice per day to delay her period because we are going on holiday abroad. She is 11 and suffers terribly from very heavy periods, which are irregular and difficult to manage. .she is 5ft 4 inches and approx 9 1/2 stone. Her period started today (friday) so we have taken 2 today as prescribed.We fly sunday morning. My question is - will her period stop completely?As she has had fresh bleeding this evening.
