A member asked:
Spotting on micronor (norethindrone).what happens if i stop midcycle? withdrawal bleed? will spotting improve?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
you will have bleed: Yes, most likely you will have a withdrawal bleed. Stopping midcycle is not the best way to overall help the spotting. If it does not improve by 3 cycles, follow up with your prescriber.
