Hi,
primolut is itself a hormone (synthetic progesterone) ,as it causes changes in uterine wall (endometrium) to counter act shedding of endometrium and stops menses,so the missed period. But as conceiving happens due to first changes in ovary (fertilization of ova and sperm) then progesterone helps further growth of fetus.
As having synthetic progesterone can cause changes in hormones so the ovulation and fertilization.If you plan for conceiving you should stop having primolut.
Hopefully my answer is helpfull.
