Took Nocolut To Delay Period But Bleeding Started Early. Should I Discontinue?

Hi. My period is supposed to start on 6 Dec so I started taking Nocolut on the morning of 2 Dec (4 days before). I have a beach holiday coming up on 8 Dec for 4 days so I thought I could try and take Norcolut to delay my period. This is not the first time I have taken Norcolut for the same purpose. Later in the morning of 2 Dec, I started bleeding like as if I was having my period. If this is my period coming early, should I discontinue with the Norcolut and let it take its course of 7 days (and hope it does not drag on past 7 days; it normally does not), or what should I do?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Since your periods have started earlier than expected, you can now discontinue taking Nocolut and have a heavier than usual bleeding after stopping the pill. Continuation of pill will result in lighter bleeding.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
