Effectiveness
How Gildess Fe 1.5/30 Affects Patients
Norethisterone is a medication taken orally that is used for birth control or to treat hormone-related issues like menopause symptoms and endometriosis. It works in a similar way to the body's natural progesterone but with a higher potency. Norethisterone affects the reproductive organs and ovulation, as well as hormones in the brain related to fertility, but it also increases the risk of developing breast cancer. People taking this medication should be aware of this possibility and regularly check their breasts for any lumps or changes.
How Gildess Fe 1.5/30 works in the body
Norethisterone works by binding to receptors in cells in the reproductive tract, breast, pituitary, hypothalamus, skeletal tissue, and central nervous system. This binding leads to changes in the cervical mucus, endometrium, and hormones like FSH and LH. These changes make it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus, make the endometrium inhospitable for implantation, and prevent ovulation. When used in hormone replacement therapy for menopausal women, norethisterone works to suppress the growth of the endometrium. It also has a low affinity for androgen and glucocorticoid
