"I was put on Norethidrone 5mg up to three times a day. I take it twice a day right now. I've been on it for almost three months now. This is my last option or have a hysterectomy. I'm 32 I am trying to put that off. TBH this works for me. Here are the side effects I have had. I do get night sweats I do get occasional cramping but only at night and yes they are like period cramps but nothing like I was having. I can't even have one glass of any type of alcohol with out getting sick and I cannot skip a dose to drink so thats all off the table. I do get random spotting and it lasts maybe a couple days. It's not too bad. I can not go without eating on this or I get really ill I have gained some weight which birth controls are notorious for doing to women so it a common one. 7. Some times you do get mood swings but any hormone Including regular birth controls can cause this. Its something you just need to work on realizing it happening and then trying to manage the situation"

"Aygestin immediately stopped my 3-month-long period, and I have not had any while on it. It's been great with manageable side effects like hot flashes and increased hunger. I have had a weird thing happen twice while on it. I get super severe cramping with a little spotting; it usually happens at night, and ibuprofen/Tylenol does not help. It goes away after a few days though."

"Started May 8 and two weeks later had full blown period with bad cramping lots of blood clots and heavy bleeding. Prior to taking this medicine I had extremely light spotting once every4 to 6 weeks. According to the FDA I should not have been taking this since I was post menopausal"

"Stopped the bleeding but had dizziness and mood swings. Even one out burst of anger. Also abdominal cramps. But for one week so far 100 times better then the last 2 months of bleeding. I am 58 and use an estrogen patch. Also prometrium but not enough to balance the unopposed estrogen which caused a thickening of the lining."

"I supposedly was to take this for 30 days to stop spotting that I was having after menopause. Took it for 15 days and got a full blown period with cramps and all!"
