Norethisterone

Hi all, it’s nearly that time again for me to start Norethisterone. It’s been so long since my last cycle that I can’t remember how many you take? Is it 1 pill a day? And the clinic phone you and tell you when you stop taking it? It’s so bloody scary having to face all this again!!

On the plus side - I booked an appointment for acupuncture and a massage! 👏💕 xxxxx

Hi hunny I’m not sure if everyone is a little different, I have to take 3 tablets a day for 10 days then expect a bleed 3-5 days after (it’s normally 3 for me) when do you start them? I start our 3rd cycle on the 8th Oct. I think your probably best checking with your clinic, good luck with your cycle 😘 x x x x

Hello. I thought it was 3 tablets but I was getting confused with progynova 🤷‍♀️🙈

I’ll check with my clinic. I am starting as soon as this period comes.

This is the same as us - 3rd cycle!!

Good luck to you too x

Hey, I took them 3 times a day, every 8 hours, for 10 days. The clinic gave me the exact dates, then 3 days after I bled and day after that I had my baseline scan, it's scary, but also quite exciting, good luck 🤗

3 a day for me too, but only for 7 days. I’d check with your clinic but I think anywhere between 7-10 days is standard x
