Can I Take Norethisterone For Delayed Periods?
Hi I think i maybe be pregnant as I my period has been delayed. Its been 3 weeks since ive gt my period from the actual date im supposed to be getting it. I took a pregnancy test and found 2 lines, but the other slightly fainter.. I do not want to be pregnant anytime now as im not prepared for it yet. My nurse friend has advised me to get Norethisterone from a local pharmacy. As it would make me to get my period and therefore if i was early conceivig, the miscarriage will occur naturally... can u pls guide me through this ?

Hello,
First, you need to confirm pregnancy by symptoms such as absent menstrual cycle ( After that you have to perform Urine analysis for HCG or Blood HCG ) . If the test is negative , repeat after 3 days. For abortion, you need to consult your gynecologist to prescribe misoprostol or other drugs.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
