Menstruation :: Norethisterone To Delay Periods For Holiday?
I got the Norethisterone pill to delay my period for a 2 week holiday. The holiday got cut short due to family issue but we are going on a short break in 2 days for 4 days. I stopped taking the pill when I got back from the holiday 4 days ago but started taking it again last night to try and delay my period while we go away again however today I have experienced some bleeding. Is it now too late? Will I get my period even if I take the pills?
View 1 RepliesLate Messed Up Periods After Norethisterone For Holiday
In july i was on a course of norethisterone for just over a week to delay my period during my holiday. After I stopped taking the pills I came on my period 3 days later, which was extremely painful, but lighter than my usual periods. This month, my period is almost 2 weeks late... I haven't had unprotected sex, so there's not a big chance that i'm pregnant.. i will be taking a test, to make sure, but i'm just wondering if the progesterone pills i was taking could be the cause of my messed up periods?

Just wondered how other people cope with the family holiday. Being out of your normal routines and in a new place perhaps. What do you put in place to help you cope?
Being at home knackered is one thing but being in a caravan, apartment or hotel etc. is much different. Having to be mobile and do holiday stuff with the kids, can and is an overload for my system. Do you avoid going away because of things like this or is it just me?
The last 10-day holiday we took has taken me 4 months to get over! (Moreover, I was still feeling rough after 4 months…) I know I am lucky to be able to grab a family holiday, but I do wonder at times, if it’s more harm than good taking a holiday with ME/CFS.

View 1 RepliesNorethisterone For 10 Days Max - What Happens Afterwards?
My 18 year old daughter has been prescribed Norethisterone for prolonged bleeding and pain (possibly endometriosis but not yet diagnosed). The instructions on the pack were to take for a maximum of 10 days at a time. She started them today whilst already bleeding; we are very confused as to what happens after 10 days. She has to stop taking it and presumably then will resume bleeding as this may well be caused by the mini-pill she is on (the name of which escapes me). How long does she have to wait before taking Norethisterone again?

I was told 12 years ago after having my first child that I would never be able to conceive naturally again due to problems which resulted in blocked Fallopian tubes! I conceived my second daughter through ivf who is now 6! Have not used contraception for 12 years! I took norethisterone last October to delay my period whilst on holiday and came back pregnant! Could this have been because of the norethisterone?

Does norethisterone change your ovulation day? I was using the tablets for less than a week to delay my period and came off them and had unprotected intercourse a few days after. If that had been my fertile window before taking the tablets would that still be my window while I was taking them?

I was prescribed norethisterone yesterday after not having a period for a year.

Norethisterone :: Sore Feet ?
I've been on Norethisterone for a couple 6-8 weeks. Don't know if its coincidence or not but i've had sore feet since i've been on them, painful bones,not swollen or bloated,just sore to walk or touch. I'm on the pills for heavy duty constant periods. It's been great not bleeding all the time and i feel much happier, scared to come off them as I know I'll flood as soon as I stop and get moody and depressed but scared to stay on them in case I get blood clots or something terrible like that. Has anyone else experienced that?

I have been on implanon for 2.5 years. During this time I had more periods than normal. Due to going on holiday I decided that I would ask doctor to help delay in.
I was prescribed 3 weeks of norethisterone and took it three times a day as directed.
I was told my period should come 2/3 days after I finished the course... Although six weeks later I still have no sign of my period and have pregnancy symptoms such as sore breasts, cramping,bloating, hot flushes, increased discharge and fatigue. Have taken a pregnancy test and it is negative.
What is going on. Has anyone else been in this situation. I am worried sick.
Norethisterone To Delay The Periods With Oxytetracycline?
I am currently taking oxytetracycline to help to reduce a persistent problem I have been having with spots and boils. I have noticed some improvement. In a couple of months I am due to go on holiday and my period is due while I am away. My periods can be really painful and leave me feeling faint for several days. I will be spending a long time travelling so having to go through my period on holiday would be a nightmare. In the past I have used Norethisterone to delay the period successfully with no problems. However I have been advised by my doctor and the pharmacist that I should not take these two drugs at the same time and I don't know what to do. I do not need to use the drug as a contraceptive merely to delay my period. I don't really want to come off the antibiotics for the sake of a holiday but will absolutely dread going if I cannot find a way to delay my period.

I'm 25 and have 3 uterine fibroids ranging from 4-6 cm in size. Due to extremely heavy bleeding which made me anemic I was put on norethisterone to stop the bleeding until I saw my consultant. She prescribed me esmya which I shall take before I have a myectomy. I was wondering if i do have to wait until I start bleeding again before I take esmya or whether I can swap from the Norethisterone to the esmya straight away?
View 5 Replies53 And Norethisterone For Fibroids - 11 Weeks Of Periods
I am nearly 53 and am anxiously waiting for the menopause. I have been diagnosed with fibroids. I started a period at the end of January and it carried on for 11 weeks with haemorrhages and huge clots. During this time I became anaemic and I have been unable to work since the middle of April. On 24th April I was fitted with a Mirena coil. I have had constant bleeding (though not as heavy as before) and abdominal discomfort ever since. The discomfort has kept me awake at night.
Last week the GP told me to take 3 norethisterone tablets a day to stop the bleeding. This worked at first and the bleeding stopped. I became very bloated though, and today the bleeding has started again. My whole life is dominated by this. I don't know what to do next. I can have a hysterectomy in October - but that's not something I relish!
Has anyone any words of encouragement?
Norethisterone Following Failed Mirena And TCRE
I was prescribed Norethisterone yesterday by my consultant following a failed Mirena Coil and failed TCRE. I am now on a waiting list for a Hysterectomy. I have been told to take these as an interim period, but must take 3 tablets a day from day 12 - day 29 of my cycle. Has anyone else been prescribed them in this way and what effect did it have. I was given a prescription for stopping my periods for a holiday many years ago but can't remember what they were called. All my husband and I can remember is that we both described them as 'grumpy pills' because of my moods, so I am anxious about taking these.

View 3 RepliesHeavy / Difficult Periods While On Norethisterone For Fibroids
I'm 33 and have uterine fibroids for which I have been taking norethisterone to stop my heavy, prolonged periods. On the advice of my GP I took a break from the tablet, but she gave me a supply in case I desperately needed them. She told me not to take any more for a while as I wouldn't know if the mini-pill (which I was prescribed 2 months ago) was working to regulate my periods and shrink the fibroids. I have started my period now and it's been going on for over a week. I'm in pain, it's heavy and clotting and my moods are all over the place, I'm tired all of the time and I can't go out for too long for fear of flooding. It's affecting my work and my relationship as I feel unattractive and sad all of the time. When I was taking norethisterone I didn't get any of these problems.

I was prescribed this medication to stop my periods whilst I was waiting to have a hysterectomy. It has made me very depressed and I have started to retain fluid, my tummy is very swollen and at times I have felt sick and extremely irritable and aggressive, however my periods stopped straight away, so for the interim it is worth coping with the side effects.
