A member asked:
I have been prescribed norethisterone to be taken 3x day for 2 months. will this stop me ovulating when i'm on and what happens after the 2 months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Norethisterone: Norethisterone is progesterone, and if taken daily will provide effective contraception, but it does not always stop ovulation. It is usually used to stop irregular bleeding or "pre-menstrual syndrome" (PMS). After the two months, you will revert to your normal cycle. At 35, it may be more applicable to use oral contraceptive pills, if there are no contraindications. Consult your gyn provider.
