When I was on it, it made my periods lighter and shorter and sometimes stopped them completely if I took it at the onset of a period.

But I was bleeding heavily with no break for months in a row!

I had an irregular cycle so would start taking norethisterone at the very start of bleeding and it would stop the bleeding for as long as I took it. If I started a day later I would have a very light day before the bleeding stopped and again it would stay stopped whilst I continued taking it.
I’d say you’d be fine based on my experience

I took them for 3 days and it put off my period for 3 days.

Unfortunately they turned me in a stroppy bitchaikovsky and preceeding period was bloody awful.

Take them 3 times a day, starting 3 days before period is due

I took them and started bleeding a couple if days later. I felt like I was having the worst PMS and bloating, so I stopped taking them as having a period was easier.

Keep taking them. The bleeding should stop again.

Loribabe · 20/11/2018 22:04
