Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
The most common side effects of primolut ( norethisterone ) are changes in libido, appetite & weight.
You gained weight due to side effect of primolut .
Once you get rid of this drug , so your weight will be in actual position after 10 days time , provided that there are no any other cause of weight gain.
Avoid fatty food with sugar . Good luck. Dr. HET
