Norethisterone is a synthetic progestin - a man-made hormone similar to progesterone. It is used as a treatment for heavy or painful periods, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), endometriosis, and to delay your period for special occasions and holidays.
You can buy Norethisterone online from our safe and secure online private prescription service at Prescription Doctor. All you need to do is fill in our online medical form for our doctor to assess if Norethisterone is suitable for you.
All orders are shipped in discreet packaging to ensure your privacy when you buy our period delay pills online.
Norethisterone is only available on prescription and cannot be bought over the counter. However, you can buy Norethisterone online from a registered UK pharmacy, such as Prescription Doctor.
During the menstrual cycle, the level of progesterone hormone in the body changes, affecting the lining of the uterus. When progesterone levels are high, the lining of the uterus is thick to allow an egg to plant itself ready for fertilisation. If the egg is not fertilised, the level of progesterone falls again and the lining of the uterus - along with the egg cell - are shed as a menstrual period (bleeding).
Norethisterone keeps the levels of progesterone high, tricking the body into thinking it is pregnant. As a result, the uterine lining is not shed and so a regular period bleed does not occur.
It can be safely prescribed to women between the ages of 18 and 54. If you are outside this limit, or are taking a combined contraceptive pill, we suggest contacting your doctor as there may be alternatives better suited for you to delay your period.
Norethisterone is not a form of contraception and will not protect you against unwanted pregnancy. You should use another form of contraception such as condoms while taking Norethisterone.
