Yeah normal daw sya it means maganda daw po effect ni norifam sa katawan ako ata 2 weeks nag bleed after naging normal mens ko 14th shot ko na
If i stop norifam.. Mabubuntis ba ako.
Can norifam be injected kahit wala pa period?
Am i still protected if i do so?
Dipende sa sasabihin ng OB mo. Norifam ako after ko manganak sa 2nd baby ko. Nag used ako for like 6months nag stop ako kasi di naman Kami active ng asawa ko. And now bumalik ako nagpa inject na ulit ako. Checheck muna ng OB mo if pwede ka turukan to make sure na di ka buntis. Pero pwede ka ma injectionan kahit wala ka pa period. Ganun sakin ngayon. Pero advice ka lang ng OB mo na dapat after 2weeks of injection magkaka period ka. And mababago na yung cycle ng period mo kung papa inject ka ng wala pang regla.

Hi po good day po. Ask lang po ako. Nag inject po ako ng norifam august 15 then nag menstruation po ako august 29 until now. Kelan po mawawala ang breakthrough bleeding. At kelan po ulit mag iinject ng norifam?
This is a helpful post for couple that into a family planning. Consulting a doctor is a must if someone wants to take this contraceptive because medicines has different effects to our body.
I’d like to take pills or contraceptives to correct my hormonal imbalance but before doing so I need to see my doctor first.
Hello. I got my first injection onnthe first day of my menses. Then 14 days later I bled a little lighter than my regular period but still more than the usual spotting. Anyway, will this disrupt the supposedly 28 day cycle? Or will my period still come on the 28th despite the bleeding on the 14th. Thanks.
Personally, I am not in favor of invasive contraceptives. I hope those who do take them will stay safe.
I took pills for a few months and stopped hoping to get pregnant.But I got pregnant after 4 years of marriage. This injectible is good alternative to pills though.
never heard of that contraceptive until now. I’m glad i don’t have to take anything because i did a non-invasive procedure to prevent me from getting pregnant too. in other words i will no longer get pregnant
never tried contraceptives I hope it works perfectly fine to you..
Is there any side effects on you? Me too, I never take any contraceptives, it somehow had side effects and indeed just made me sick, but hoping not to get pregnant again though.
I refused to take any contraceptives before, glad we are safe now..
