Will Primolut N Affect Baby If I Am Pregnant?
Hi,
Iam 26yr old woman and planning for a baby. I am on a 28-day cycle. But my urine pregnancy test showed negative on the 32nd-day. Since there was a marriage of my own sister, I am planning to take Primolut N for 3 days starting from today just to be sure. Will this affect the baby, if am pregnant? If I repeat the pregnancy test next day, while I am on Primolut N, will the results be skewed? How long should I wait before I repeat the test? I will be on Primolut N for the next 3 days. Will Primolut N induce periods once I stop taking the same even if I am pregnant? or please advise which tablet I need to take to postpone my period if am I not pregnant.Please advise.

Hello ma'am and welcome.
Althiugh it is strongly advised not to take this medication during pregnancy, many women have taken it by mistake and continued to have normal pregnancies and children.
Although this does not rule out the possibility of hinderance in growth and development of the fetus. I would recommend an elaborate evaluation of the fetus using ultrasound and amniocentesis to assess the status of its growth and development before 20 weeks of gestation.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
