Missed Periods After Taking I-pill, Negative HPT, Ultrasound Done, Prescribed Cyclonorm P And E. Right Medications?

After having taken i- pill i have missed my periods for two and a half months. However the home pregnancy test shows negative. I went to my gynae and after doing ultrasound test,she prescribed me cyclonorm P( Norethisterone 5mg)and cyclonorm E (Ethinylestrdiol .01mg) twice daily for three days. She said i ll get my period in around 10 days time. But now when i see and read about these drugs i find they are used for delaying periods. I m completely confused.Please help.

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood your concern. The high hormone content in the emergency contraceptive pill creates hormonal disturbance. This can lead to withdrawal bleeding soon after the pill intake and/or delayed cycles. The medication prescribed by your doctor can be used as a cyclical course to regularize the cycles or to induce a period when there is a need. Usually, progesterone alone is used to induce a period, but, with added estrogen the effect is better though estrogens have more side effects. Hope your query has been clarified. Wish you good health.
