How long does it take for norethindrone to help relieve monthly pms symptoms of lightheadedness and extreme fatigue. im on month two and experiencing them same time of the month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
True "PMS" symptoms are usually due to sudden drops in ovarian estrogen production, at the pre-ovulatory and immediate pre-menstrual days. Ask your GYN physician about low dose oral contraception, to stop ovarian hormone production, which should relieve the PMS symptoms.
