Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Norethisterone is a drug that may be used for a wide variety of gynecological problems including excessive menstrual bleeding.Heavy bleeding on day 1 and 2 of your menses may be normal even after taking norethisterone.However, if bleeing becomes too exaggerated or prolonged, you see your Gynecologist for evaluation.
Hope this will help
Best regards
