A member asked:
I read about a pill called norethindrone thats used to help regulate periods and ovulation. could you just tell me a bit about it and if it would hel?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a doctor: I don't recommend people use the internet to induce periods or ovulation. There are life-threatening risks to doing so yourself. Norethindrone is a progestin (synthetic progesterone).
