Brief Answer:
Not a side effect of the pill taken one month back.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Primolut N helps in having a withdrawal bleeding in case the periods are delayed. It does not have a long term effect on the periods. I presume that you had Primolut N in May this year to have periods. The delay in periods now is likely to be due to a hormonal imbalance and not due to a side effect of Primolut N.
It is best to wait for one more week and let the periods start on their own. In case the periods are still delayed then do consult your gynecologist for a few tests and get hormonal tablets prescribed to have regular periods.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Brief Answer:
Pregnancy needs to be ruled out.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
The chances of pregnancy are there. Urine test usually becomes positive when periods are overdue by five days. It is best to wait till 29th May and then test your urine again for pregnancy.
Hope my answer is helpful.
