Brief Answer:
Wait for a week.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Usually after stopping norethisterone it takes 5-7 days for the bleeding to start. I believe that you should get your periods soon. If at all it doesn't, then you should see your doctor. some blood tests to test for hormonal imbalance that is causing irregular periods is perhaps entailed. Pregnancy also needs to be ruled out.

Currently, I suggest you to wait for a week and then if no periods happen then consider consulting a gynecologist.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Brief Answer:
Wait for a few days more.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again,
The symptoms that you have are not worrisome.

This can be due to mild hormonal changes. In case the periods do not start in the next week then do consult a gynecologist and get a test done to rule out pregnancy.

Hope my answer is helpful.
Regards.
