I am currently taking 5mg Norethisterone for prolonged and heavy periods. I am 48 years old.
I am wondering if I take 2 packets or more without a break would I stop bleeding completely?
Has anyone done this with good results?

Hi Jill, you definitely can't request or give medical advice on here. I guess your doctor would be the best person to ask.0 -
All I will say is that I did this for a couple of months and I ended up with VERY painful breasts, they felt like they'd been kicked black and blue, but it was worth not bleeding for a week out of every three."There is a light that never goes out"0

But different people have different reactions to medication and an individual medical history, and this is why, as gingin pointed out, medical opinions should not be asked for or answered on this site.I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has had to overcome while trying to succeed.
