About Norethisterone
Norethisterone tablets are used to temporarily delay a menstrual period when it is expected at an inconvenient time, such as on holiday. Norethisterone contain a synthetic version of the female hormone progesterone which naturally occurs in the body and sustains the lining of the womb. When the level of progesterone normally falls at the time of a period, this lining is shed as a menstrual period. Norethisterone tablets therefore safely sustain the lining of the womb until the medication is stopped. It is emphasised that Norethisterone is not a form of contraception and will not prevent pregnancy.How long can Norethisterone delay my period for?
