Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
While you are taking norethisterone, you will not have your normal periods. After stopping norethisterone, withdrawal bleeding occurs.
Since you had a miscarriage in August, it is not advisable to try for conception till February.
You should try to have regular intercourse during the ovulation days or fertile days (days 9 to 16 days in a regular cycle of 28 to 30 days duration with day 1 being the day the bleeding starts ).The frequency of intercourse during ovulation should be at least every alternate days.
I would like to reassure you that there is no major health concern with you. Do not worry. You should not have any problem in conception or child bearing.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.

Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.

Wishing you good health.

Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
