Suggest Treatment For Persistent Vaginal Bleeding Post Norethisterone Withdrawal
I was on Noristerate Since May 2017 and in September 2017 I didn t go for the injection. Now in October I got my period and I m on day 18 and the bleeding hasn t stopped. What should I do. I already have symptoms of endometriosis what would be best for me.?
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
You shouldn't stop Norethisterone suddenly because it causes bleeding. Lower the dose gradually. Now you have to take Norethisterone again to stop bleeding. Since, you suffer from endometriosis you can use Depo-Provera shot for a long period without menstruation.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
