Had Irregular Menstrual Cycle. On Steron, Gynaset. What Are The Side Effects?
Hi, I had irregular menstrual cycle, so I visited a doctor (DGO). She prescribed Steron (or) Gynaset, to be taken 2 tablets in night from the 20th day of periods. Along with this Zeromet 500mg 1/2 tablet before food thrice everyday for 8 months, and MCBM69 1 tablet in night for 8 months. Can you tell me the use of each of these medicines and side effects if any?

Steron or Gynaset contains Norethisterone which regularizes your menstrual cycle . side effects are nausea, vomiting, head ache, dizziness, acne, breast tenderness, irregular bowel movements are the common side effects.
zeromet contains Metformin which reduces the androgen production . side effects are nausea,decreased appetite, flatulence and cramps.
MCBM69 contains vitamin B12, B6 and folic acid which is usually given as a supportive treatment and also improves fertility. side effects are nausea, vomiting.
