I would definitely advise against norethisterone in a 13 year old girl. The sole reason would be to not too mess with menstrual cycle at this age. But if the situation demands with no other option, I would always suggest them to take norethisterone with a prescription from a OBG specialist. Hope this helps you. Thanks for your query.
