Hi Tracy it is a progestorone only pill. I was norethistorone for two years, only progestorone. It worked brilliant. If you are not sure..ask the doctor to Change it. Take care.

I have just had to stop taking norethisterone because it badly affected my joints but for the pelvic pain/endo/adeno it was amazing and felt I had some life back. I had a few side effects with it though, one being night sweats, to the point of me having to change the bed half way through the night :O I also got headaches for the first month and zero libido but those side effects were better than the pain! I also was prescribed loads of other pills, injections and the m.coil but they all made me bleed constantly, good luck hun x
