Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:
1. Bleeding could be due to local or systemic cause.
2. Local causes include fibroid, endometrial hyperplasia, or even tumors. Norethisterone could have prevented endometrial cause, so other causes needs to be investigated.
3. Iron needs to be given through other routes, including diet to improve hemoglobin. If its severe, packed cell transfusions might be necessary.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
