General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

Micronor contains Norethisterone, a natural female sex hormone called progesterone that is used in the prevention of unwanted pregnancies from unprotected sexual intercourse. It may cause menstrual irregularities like prolonged or scanty bleeding, delayed or frequent periods, irregular uterine bleeding, spotting or breakthrough bleeding between periods, vaginal bleeding, vaginal discharge and many more. These side effects are mild and usually go away as the body adjusts to this medicine. But if these side effects persist for long or bother you then you should consult your doctor first for medical help.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Zubayer Alam, General And Family Physician
