Menstrual Delay Prescription

Word Document · DOCX


What the prescription contains

Drug prescribed: Norethisterone 5 mg tablets, three times daily (TDS), orally.
Rationale (from Berek & Novak's Gynecology): Norethisterone is a synthetic progestogen. Taken continuously, it maintains the secretory endometrium and prevents shedding. Menstruation typically resumes 2–3 days after stopping the tablets.
How to use:
  • Start taking it 3 days before the expected period date
  • Continue throughout travel (safe for up to 10–14 days)
  • Period returns 2–3 days after stopping
Key cautions included in the prescription:
  • Not a contraceptive at this dose — usual contraception should be continued
  • Avoid in: history of thromboembolic disease, liver disease, hormone-dependent tumours, undiagnosed vaginal bleeding, pregnancy
  • Long-haul travel independently increases DVT risk — advise the patient to stay hydrated and mobile on the flight
