A member asked:
I am trying to postpone my period... i took plan b 4 days ago? can i start norethindrone today to delay period? dose? 5mg or 10mg?

Yes: You can take Norethindrone 5mg daily to delay your period; however since you took plan b, if you try to delay your period, you might be in fact masking a pregnancy (in case Plan B failed).
