Getting started with Norethindrone tablets at QuickMD
Description
Norethindrone tablets are a prescription medication that contain progestin, a synthetic form of the hormone progesterone, which your body naturally produces. In hormone therapy, norethindrone provides progesterone support to help maintain hormonal balance, protect uterine health, and relieve hormone-related symptoms. It may also be prescribed for women who need additional support regulating menstrual cycles and reducing issues such as heavy bleeding or cramps. You can meet with a QuickMD doctor to see if norethindrone tablets are the right option for you.
How to use
Use norethindrone tablets exactly as directed by your QuickMD doctor. This medication is for oral use only. Take one tablet by mouth with a glass of water, with or without food. Take your medication at the same time each day, exactly as prescribed. Do not take more often than directed. Staying on schedule helps keep hormone levels steady and symptoms under control. Each prescription comes with a patient information leaflet. Be sure to read it carefully, and ask your doctor if you have any questions.

Side effects
Serious or adverse side effects from norethindrone tablets are rare. However, some women may experience changes in menstrual bleeding (such as spotting, breakthrough bleeding, or missed periods), mild nausea, breast tenderness, headaches, or changes in mood. Less commonly, bloating, dizziness, or changes in weight or appetite may occur.
This is not a full list of side effects, interactions, or warnings, and it should not replace medical advice. For guidance tailored to your health and medications, always talk with your healthcare provider or pharmacist.
Safety information
Norethindrone tablets must be prescribed by a licensed doctor. A consultation with a QuickMD doctor is required to review your health and determine if this prescription medication is appropriate for you.
Frequently asked questions
How much do norethindrone tablets cost?
Norethindrone tablets are $19 with QuickMD’s cash-pay option, giving you clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. Many women prefer this route because it’s simple, stress-free, and allows their medication to be shipped right to their door.
If you’d rather use insurance, your doctor can send your prescription to your local pharmacy. Costs and coverage depend on your plan, but your QuickMD doctor will walk you through the options so you can choose what works best for your health, your budget, and your life.
Will I gain weight on norethindrone?
Weight changes can happen, but they’re uncommon and usually mild. Some women may notice temporary fluid retention or shifts in appetite, but research has not shown that norethindrone causes consistent or long-term weight gain. If you notice changes in your weight or how you feel while taking it, talk with your doctor. Sometimes adjusting timing, dose, or addressing other factors can help.
Does norethindrone affect estrogen levels?
Norethindrone is a progestin-only hormone prescription medication. It does not contain estrogen and does not raise estrogen levels in the body. Instead, it works by providing progestin, which can help regulate the menstrual cycle, manage irregular bleeding, and ease symptoms related to hormone imbalance.
How the membership works
Book your first visit. It’s free to start!
To begin your MHT Membership, book your first visit with a QuickMD doctor who understands perimenopause and menopause. Start with your first month free, then continue at $79 per month, which includes a doctor’s visit, your prescription, and ongoing care. During your first appointment, your doctor will review your health history, listen to your symptoms, and answer your questions. Together, you’ll decide whether hormone therapy feels right for you and start care that’s supportive, personal, and focused on lasting relief.
Unlock the perks of woman-centered care
Your membership gives you immediate access to answers when you need them most. Each month, your first doctor’s visit is included in your membership, and if you need additional support, extra visits are just $49. If medication could help ease your symptoms, your doctor will take the time to discuss your options and prescribe what you need during your visit. You can choose to have it shipped directly to your home with transparent pricing, or sent same-day to your local pharmacy. There are no contracts to lock you in, so you can cancel anytime. It’s flexible care built around what you’re going through, so you get the care you deserve.
Find relief with Norethindrone tablets, if right for you
If your doctor determines norethindrone tablets are right for you, they can prescribe them as part of your treatment plan. By providing progesterone support, norethindrone works alongside estrogen to protect uterine health and help keep hormone therapy safe over time. For many women, this also means more predictable bleeding during perimenopause, fewer cramps, and relief from hormone-related discomfort as the transition to menopause continues. With your membership, you’ll have regular check-ins with your doctor to ensure your treatment stays safe, effective, and personalized to you.
