Brief Answer:
I pill can delay the next expected periods

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
I pill delays the next expected periods by 3-4 weeks.
Since she has taken i pill multiple times, chances of delay in the periods are there.
Moreover, if the urine pregnancy test is negative, then there is nothing to worry and she can wait for the periods safely.
She should take primolut for 5 days and wait at least for 7-10 days after the last dose of this drug for the withdrawal periods to occur.
Hope you found the answer helpful. Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.

Brief Answer:
Papaya do not help

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, eating papaya do not induces periods.
If theperiods do not occur within10 days of stopping the primolut, then she should get a urine pregnancy test repeated.
You both should not panic, and wait patiently.

Helo doctor
As per our previous conversations my fiance stopped taking primolut nor on 8th dec that was her 5th day of intake and yesterday 11th dec evening she got her periods. She suffered with too much pain in her lower abdomen and heavy blood flow is going. Is there any problem or does she have to take a pregnancy test again? and she will be having normal periods from next month doctor?

Answered by Dr. Deepti Verma (50 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Not pregnant

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Heavy flow during withdrawal bleeding along with pain lower abdomen is common after primolut intake.
She is not pregnant, and that is sure by the fact that she is getting heavy menstrual flow in withdrawal bleeding.
She do not need to repeat the urine pregnancy test.
