How does the drug work?
The main component of the drug, mentioned above, directly affects the mucosa, preventing it from leaving the state in which it resides in the premenstrual phase of the cycle. In itself, norethisterone does not allow the pituitary to carry out the synthesis of hormones, because of which the maturation of the new egg does not occur. All this is accompanied by a decrease in the tone of the uterine musculature.

How correctly to take Norkolut?
Reception of this drug should be carried out under the supervision of a doctor, and only for its purpose. It is the doctor who must indicate the dosage of the drug Norkolut.
For violations of the menstrual cycle, the medication is usually taken as follows: 2 tablets per day for 7 days. However, each case of the disease is individual.
