Hello and welcome to HCM.

Thank you for your query.

I hope pregnancy was completely ruled out by a doctor and only then the medication given to you was prescribed.

Norethisterone is used to treat secondary amenorrhea. Once given, it takes 3-7 days for the period to appear. In some cases it can take about 10-15 days, but this is rare. As it has been only 3 days, you should expect your period anytime soon. Do not worry.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://doctor.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-shoaib-khan/64581 . I would gladly help you.

Best wishes.
