Hello,
You can go for a urine pregnancy test to check whether you are pregnant or not.
If UPT is negative you can consult a gynaecologist and start on hormonal pills to induce bleeding. Do not use norethisterone for this condition.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
