Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Primolut N tablet contains 'Norethisterone' as an active ingredient.
It is used for Irregular, Painful or heavy periods, postponement of periods as well as Contraceptive.
If you are having intercourse in the non-fertile period, then it is not necessary to use any other form of contraceptive, provided her cycles were regular.
Otherwise, it would be advisable to use contraceptive like condom to be on the safer side.
Hope the information provided helps.
All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.,
