Thank you for your question.

  1. In principle, yes any doctor is allowed to prescribe Norethisterone.
  2. Most GP clinics in Singapore will be carrying them.
  3. The GP must be “sufficiently satisfied” that there is a good enough reason that you are taking it.
  4. The GP must be “sufficiently satisfied” that all potentially dangerous conditions have been excluded.
  5. Which boils down to, please make sure you know your own medical condition, previous lab reports or scans before going down to ensure success.

Take care.
