What is Norethisterone?

Norethisterone is a synthetic progestin—a man-made hormone similar to progesterone.

It is used to treat heavy or painful periods, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), endometriosis, and to delay your period for special occasions and holidays.

Buy Norethisterone Online in the UK

Norethisterone is only available on prescription and cannot be bought over the counter. However, you can purchase Norethisterone online after completing an online consultation.

All you need to do is fill in our online medical form for our clinician to assess if Norethisterone is suitable for you.

How does Norethisterone work?

During the menstrual cycle, the level of progesterone hormone in the body changes, affecting the lining of the uterus. When progesterone levels are high, the lining of the uterus is thick, allowing an egg to implant and prepare for fertilisation. If the egg is not fertilised, the progesterone level falls again, and the lining of the uterus and the egg cell is shed during a menstrual period (bleeding).

Norethisterone keeps the levels of progesterone high, tricking the body into thinking it is pregnant. As a result, the uterine lining is not shed, so a regular period bleed does not occur.

It can be safely prescribed to women between 18 and 54. Suppose you are outside this limit or are taking a combined contraceptive pill. In that case, we suggest contacting your doctor as there may be alternatives better suited for you to delay your period.

Norethisterone is not a form of contraception and will not protect you against unwanted pregnancy. You should use another form of contraception, such as condoms, while taking Norethisterone.

How do I take Norethisterone?

You should start taking Norethisterone 3 days before your period is due to start for maximum effectiveness.

The usual dosage is one pill three times a day.

Swallow the tablets whole with a glass of water.

Norethisterone tablets can be taken with or without food.

Our doctors can prescribe a maximum of 42 tablets, which can delay your period for up to 14 days.

Your normal period should resume 2-3 days after taking the last tablet. If your period does not start within this time frame, please don't hesitate to contact our clinicians or your regular GP for further advice and assistance.

Do not take Norethisterone if you are pregnant.

What should I do if I forget to take Norethisterone?

If you forget to take Norethisterone at the scheduled time, take it as soon as you remember. Continue to take Norethisterone at the usual time.

Do not take more Norethisterone to make up for a missed dose.

What should I do if I take more Norethisterone than I should?

If you take more Norethisterone tablets than you should, speak to your doctor straight away.

Norethisterone side effects and cautions

Norethisterone is not suitable for all women. If you are unsure whether Norethisterone is suitable for you, speak to your doctor.

Before taking Norethisterone, read the patient information leaflet supplied with your pill pack. The patient information leaflet contains instructions for taking, storing and disposing of Norethisterone tablets, as well as important information regarding the safety of the medicine.

You can read the patient information leaflet for Utovlan (Norethisterone) online.

Who should not take Norethisterone?

Norethisterone should not be taken if you:

  • are pregnant, think you might be pregnant or trying to conceive
  • are breastfeeding
  • have had previous blood circulation problems, such as a blood clot in any part of the body
  • have unexplained and chronic chest pain, shortness of breath or cough
  • have undiagnosed genital bleeding
  • have untreated endometrial hyperplasia
  • have liver or kidney dysfunction
  • have Diabetes

If you have untreated high blood pressure, we recommend contacting your GP to ensure your blood pressure is within the recommended range.

Allergies

Do not take Norethisterone if you are allergic to any of the ingredients of Norethisterone, such as lactose, maize starch, or magnesium stearate.

If you experience the signs of an allergic reaction after taking Norethisterone, stop taking the tablets and seek immediate medical attention by going straight to your nearest hospital's casualty department. Remember to take the packaging and any remaining tablets with you so that the doctors treating you know exactly what you have taken.

Signs of an allergic reaction include:

  • Chest tightening
  • Dry, red, and cracked skin
  • Itchy, red, watery eyes
  • Raised, itchy, red rash (hives)
  • Swelling of the lips, tongue, eyes or face
  • Tummy pain, nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea
  • Wheezing

Norethisterone side effects

Norethisterone use is relatively safe, and side effects are rare.

Most people will see their period start within 4 to 5 days of stopping their norethisterone treatment.

Is it safe to delay my period?

Yes, it is safe to delay your period for up to 17 days.

Yes, but you will not be protected against unwanted pregnancy. It is important to use a form of contraception such as condoms if you plan on having intercourse while taking Norethisterone.
