Hello there,
Thank you for your question.
Now that you have started to get brown discharge it seems that your period has started and yes it is too late to take norethisterone now. To delay a period you need to start taking norethisterone tablets about a week before the expected period. Now there is not much you can do. Be careful next time.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
