Not Unusual: When you bleed constantly on Micronor (norethindrone) or any birth control pill, often, when you stop the pill, your body will react with no bleeding. Give it another month, if still you have no menses, see a doctor.

Off BCP: Not unusual. Birth control pills are hormones and at times when stopping there may be a period of amenorrhea (up to 6 months). Would check urine/blood HCG possible sonogram, which would rule out pregnancy and check for developing follicles. In post pill amenorrhea there are no developing follicles, also your LH/FSH is low. Follow with your doctor.
