Should I Take Norethisterone As I Am About To Ovulate?

Hi I have been taking 5mg of norethisteeone for the last 5 days and and have another 10 days to go. I today found out that I am about to ovulate. Will taking these mean its more difficult to fall pregnant this month? And If I do fall pregnant, when I stop the tablets will this mean my womb lining will shed and remove any pregnancy with it? Is it possible to stop the tablets and still be pregnant and not to shed the womb lining? Thanks

hello,
i can understand your concern.
i would like to know the reason for taking norethisterone.
norethisterone is a drug used for oral contraception.
it is highly unlike that you would conceive this month due to its usage.
there is still a chance of getting pregnant if the ovulation had occurred in the initial days of starting the tablet.
if you have conceived the usage or stoppage of the medication will not have any effect on the pregnancy.
hope you are satisfied with the response.
do get back to us for further queris.
thanks for choosing HCM
