Suggest Medication To Get Menstruation Before The Expected Date
Question: Kindly suggest the tablet for early periods without any side effect
Brief Answer:
Tab Norethisterone
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX Hi
I can understand your concern.
There should be some genuine reason to prepone the periods.
To prepone the periods take Norethisterone 5mg one tablet three times a day beginning three days before the expected period is due to begin.
It is to be taken every day in the same dosage until such time until it is convenient for the period to begin. You can expect your period in 3-5 days after stopping Norethisterone.
Since this medication needs a prescription you can discuss with a gynecologist regarding this and get a prescription for the same.
Generally it is safe to use, however it can cause breast pain, headache, water retention (slight weight gain) and mood disturbances. painful or heavy periods in some users.
Hope this answers your query.
