Question: I started my period Monday very light. I went to my dr who gave me northristone to stop it. It's my birthday tomorrow and I want it to stop but I'm still bleeding although very light. What are the chances of it stopping by tomorrow
Brief Answer:
Very less chances of stopping it , once it starts.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Once your period starts, chances are very very low that it will stop with Norethisterone.
The only option is to go ahead and continue taking it, and then see if it stops.
Frankly, its not very likely that it will.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
