Is Norethindrone Acetate 5 mg Safe to Delay Periods?

Patient's Query

norethindrone acetate 5 mg is safe to take to delay periods, what should be the dosage

Gynecologyy

Answered by Dr. Mohit Saraogi

Taking a pill with 5 milligrams of norethindrone acetate 3 times a day is a good way to delay your period. You’re supposed to start 3 days before the expected date of your menstruation. For most people it is safe but they might have to put up with some side effects such as headaches or feeling sick in their stomach. If this medication raises any worries or one has serious symptoms then a gynecologist should be consulted immediately.

I cant calculate mu current period cycle as im having irregular period every month and want to get pregnant.

Female | 25

Disordered periods don't make the process of finding the fertile window easy at all. You should see your gynecologist or a fertility specialist and have him/her evaluate your menstrual history, as this is the best way to get advice on tracking ovulation. It will also raise your chances of conceiving.

Can u bleed at 6 weeks? Just a little and stop?

Female | 19

Yes, it is possible to bleed lightly for 6 weeks of pregnancy, and at last, it stops. This is appendicle and known as implantation training. When the fertilized egg sticks to a uterus lining it happens. Remarkably, if the blood loss is minuscule and the patient does not feel pain, everything is okay. However, in contrast to this, long-term, or if the folks feel hard pain with bleeding, they have a hand-set in consultation with the gynecologist.

Last month my period date was 25feb this month till now I have not period and my pregnancy test is also negative.

Female | 24

Your period being late is an ordinary occurrence! There are times when stress and routine changes disrupt the cycle. If your pregnancy test turns negative without other symptoms, don't fret - it's likely normal. Wait a couple more weeks; if your period still hasn't arrived by then, consulting a gynecologist might be wise.

Ovulation can happen even in women with hemorrhagic cysts but look at the size and the kind of cyst. It is always advised to see a gynecologist who is an expert when it comes to cysts for a thorough examination and treatment plan. Please take prescribed drugs and go for regular check-ups

Hello doctor I was expecting pregnancy and yesterday I have to get my period. I have noticed little bleeding yesterday with very mild period cramps. Immediately I have taken diclomal tablet get releived from those cramps. However I havemt noticed any kind of bleeding in my pad but noticed brown colour discharge today morning. My concern is am I pregnant or is it implantation bleeding and if it is so as I have taken the tablet will that effect the pregnancy

Female | 34

It’ is difficult to tell if it's just implantation bleeding unless there is a medical assessment done. You should visit a gynecologist and let them take the pregnancy test and afterward give you the advice you need. The intake of Diclomal tablet can leave the pregnancy at the risk and therefore it is vital to inform the doctor the same. It would be best that you see a gynecologist so you can get a complete check-up with their recommendations.

Can i get pregnant after having periods on my date...

Female | 17

It is possible to conceive after the menstruation period has passed even if it is on time. This is because the body normally gets rid of the uterus lining during this time, but an ovum can still be released occasionally resulting in pregnancy. So if one is not ready for a baby, they should always use birth control methods.

IPill may cause hormonal fluctuations. These fluctuations can sometimes lead to sore breasts. Wearing a supportive bra and applying warm compresses helps alleviate discomfort. If pain persists, consulting your gynecologist becomes advisable.

period pain since 16 but not come what to do my date is 19-20

Female | 23

It is entirely natural to have period pain, including if your period has not yet come. This period of pain represents the ups and downs our body goes through with hormones as they change. A warm bath or a warm water bag on the tummy can be used to ease the pain. If pain gets too severe or you have any further worries; contact a gynecologist.

The information that you shared is such that I can't tell between the loss of virginity and residual menstrual blood as the causes of bleeding. It requires a gynecologist examination to rule out any underlying medical conditions.

Can I be having cervical cancer

Female | 35

Cervical cancer can happen, but there's no need to worry—it's treatable if caught early. Potential signs include unusual bleeding, discharge, pain during intimacy, or pelvic aches. The primary cause is often specific strains of the HPV virus. Regular gynecologist visits and Pap smears can help detect any issues early. Stay on top of your screenings to protect your health.

Please I have an issue with my ear. I discovered that I couldn't hear clearly again. On checking by a relative, it was discovered that there are lots of waxes which was cleaned with cotton bud. Unfortunately, I couldn't still hear well as there's a continuous sound from the ear (like a continuous sound). A drop of baby oil was applied to soften any wax still contained internally but no success yet. I don't know what I should do next. Expecting your recommendations. Thanks.

Male | 33

Your description makes me think you just got a blockage due to your excessive earwax. I recommend you book an appointment with an ENT specialist. Consulting them for your hearing-related problems is an important step to take to derive a proper solution.

Breast cancer or a benign papilloma are serious diseases that may suggest brown discharge from nipples. It is better to take a thorough medical evaluation to a breast specialist or a gynecologist of your choice.

Good evening Doc! I would like to ask questions about getting pregnant, because yesterday me and my boyfriend did some deed. When i did oral sex to him, he came and then we sanitized it using sanitizer, but he licked the remaining cum then after we kissed and he did oral sex to my vagina, is there a chance of getting pregnant? if ever what should we do to stop and avoid pregnancy? And can sperm penetrate on clothes? And can sanitizer kill sperm?

There may be a chance in case sperm came in contact with the vagina directly.. Kindly consult a professional gynecologist for a urine test or blood test to confirm pregnancy.

Female | 23

If you missed your period and your pregnancy test is negative, it may be that your menstrual cycle is just delayed due to stress, changes in diet or exercise, and hormonal imbalances. But if you continue to experience irregular periods or missed periods, you must talk to a Gynecologist.
