If you are taking regular pill/patch, a better way of delaying your period is taking your combined pill pack or your contraceptive patches back to back without a seven day break. We do not advise taking Norethisterone and your combined pill together. If you are using the mini pill, a contraceptive implant or a contraceptive injection and norethisterone together, it can result in a higher risk of having side effects from the hormones such as blood clots. We do not advise taking Norethisterone and your current treatment together.
