Is Pregnancy Possible Through Intercourse While On Norethisterone?
I used protection each time I had sex. But I skipped my periods this month. I have taken 5 days of norethisterone tablets and I even took two pregnancy test and they were negative. Butmy periods have not come yet. Is there any chance of me being pregnant?

Hello,
OCP's are not 100% effective but as you have taken it for 5 days then I don't think there is any chance of getting pregnant.
Sometimes weakness, stress, anxiety, heavy exercise and certain hormonal changes in body after sexual intercourse and taking OCP's may cause delayed periods.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
