Estra Noreth and missed dosage

I have been using Estra-Noreth 1.0/0.5mg for about 6 months for menopause symptoms. I have not had a period since starting this medication. I missed two days dosage & my period started.

Estra Noreth sluggishness and foot cramps

I have been taking this medication for three days now and am feeling sluggish. As well I have cramps in my feet. Does this have anything to do with this medication? ## Yes, it may be due to the medication, these are hormones and have been known to cause those types of side effects. They should wear off after your body gets used to the medication. Learn more Estradiol details here. Learn more Norethisterone details here.
