Suggest Treatment For High Liver Enzymes And Weight Gain

I have been taking norethindrone (3)5mg pills a day for 2 years. I have recently stopped taking it due to high liver enzymes, weight gain(20lbs) and hypertension. I now have Merena.

How long will it typically take for my blood pressure to be reduced and for my body to normalize?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
If liver enzymes elevation was caused by medications then it should stabilize within 6 weeks after stopping it. Also, blood pressure may be caused by some other things and you shoulld check your heart and kidneys function to see exact cause and find appropriate therapy.

I hope I have answered your question.
Wish you good health. Regards
