Hi, was just wondering if anyone on the site took the drug Norethisterone, park known as Utovlan to help with heavy periods? I take it every period I get as it eases the pain before I come on and also the heaviness of AF. I know its a breast cancer drug but it helps me a lot. I have not heard or seen anyone else take it and was wondering if anyone does?
hey, my doctor prescribed this for me today. i'll let you know how it goes. i'm not sure why she prescribed it to me, i just have very irregular periods and i get spotting every 20 or so days which sounds different from what its normally used for (endometrosis).
Same with me- I'm totally confused though because I'm supposed to take it if after 30 days I havent gotten my period/ovulated. But my problem is I spot every 20-24 days so do I count that as a period?!??
I swear I feel like my doc has no idea who I am and just read my chart: PCOS, irregular cycles and prescribed this medication based on that without really thinking about my specific situation.
anyway let me know what its like, i hope i ovulate, but probably not so i'm getting ready to take it in hmm... about 21 days lol
