Hello,
It seems you have been given Norethindrone, which is a hormonal preparation after excluding pregnancy by the pregnancy test. In such case bleeding starts within 8 days of stopping the pills.
You have to finish the number of pills advised by a doctor in daily dose and then wait for the bleeding for 8 to 10 days. If there is no bleeding after 10 days you should consult the treating doctor for further management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale
