Norethidrone (mini pill)

I have recently started taking it for my intense severe mood swings, depression, and anxiety during the week of my period. I believe I have pmdd so my ob put me on norethidrone to see if it’ll help. I have my tubes out so I don’t take it for pregnancy reasons. I just started taking it this week. I have forgotten two appointment this week which isn’t like me. I’m worried it could be giving me memory loss. Does this typically happen? And is it temporary? How were everyone’s experiences being on this medication because I’ve been nervous to take it from the start.. I really don’t want to go back to birth control which is one of the reasons for having my tubes removed. But I couldn’t handle how crazy I get every month which starts a few days before I start my period. I’m not sure if this will even help but will see as I continue to take it.
