User Reviews for Ortho Micronor

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Birth Control: I experienced a heavy period and breast tenderness at first after I switched from Ortho Novum 7/7/7. After the first pack, the tenderness was gone, my period went back to normal, and my sex drive increased. I like it alot.

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Birth Control: I've been on this for 2 months and I have experienced cramping, acne breakout, low sex drive and breast tenderness. Been switch to Alesse. We'll see what happens.

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Birth Control: I thought that this medicine was doing good for the first week, till I got really sick. I had horrible headaches and abdominal pain, I looked up the side effects one day on a hunch and all my symptoms were serious side effects. I immediately stopped taking the medicine.

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Birth Control: I've been using Micronor for about four months. At first I had mild cramping, but now everything is good.

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Birth Control: After I started taking it, my boobs got so tender, I couldn't even walk fast. Instead of not having period I had mine more than usual. After very bad 3 months, everything good. But they are VERY SENSITIVE in timing. If I'm half an hour late taking them, I get period! But not just time but also STRESS whenever I'm stressed or get very upset, I also get my period.

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Birth Control: I am a healthy, active, college student, and I have experienced no negative side effects from this pill. I was scared to start it because so many other users gave it bad reviews, but I've been on it for 3 months and I've had no bad side effects at all. I'm also not pregnant so the pill seems to be working correctly. Micronor hasn't changed my moods or made me gain weight. The only noticeable change has been my breast size. Within the first month of taking Micronor, my bra size increased from a C to a D. I use condoms with Micronor to be extra safe, since it is not quite as effective at preventing pregnancy as other birth control pills.

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Birth Control: I was switched to this from Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo and it was a horrible experience. My skin is so oily now and I have breakouts constantly. I have gained about 10 pounds on this pill and I had bad abdominal pain. The timing was an issue also, with other pills it's not that big a deal if you are half hour late but with this pill even as little as 30 minutes caused heavy spotting. I am switching back to Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo this week.

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Birth Control: Started taking this 10days ago, and feel terrible! Headaches, acne (and I have amazing skin normally), urine smells funny and emotionally very unsettled. Will be going back to see the doctor asap, and exploring other options! Do your research before taking this pill .

Ortho Micronor (norethindrone) for Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: After multiple surgeries, office procedures and test done on me the results are low progesterone. My doctor put me on this pill. For the last two months and now into my third pack of pills I no longer have heavy long periods. I do recall missing a dose and/or taking my pill late caused me to have a period and/or spotting and/or long heavy periods. Now, I make sure I take them every day at the same time clockwise %u2026 so far it works and I have not had a period or spotting in about 35 days. I am not pregnant; occasionally, I get a light headache or feel a little dizzy and realize that I need to eat something; after I eat, the light headache and little dizziness goes away. I've lost weight vs. gain weight from the pill.
