I am a 30-year-old woman who has missed my period for a month, and it still hasn't started even after taking Regestrone tablets; since I haven't been sexually active, could this be early menopause or just an irregular period?
Please be reassured that at 30, early menopause is very rare. It is much more common for this to be a temporary hormonal irregularity, often triggered by stress, weight changes, thyroid variations, or conditions like PCOS. Additionally, a withdrawal bleed typically starts 3 to 10 days after you finish the full course of norethisterone, rather than while taking it. I gently suggest waiting a few days after your last tablet. If your period still does not start, please consult your gynecologist for a simple evaluation to help bring you peace of mind.
