Hello XXXXXXX.
Thanks for writing to us.

You have provided with good information but I would like to know a few more things as this would help me in suggesting you better.

I believe the more information a person gives the better is the doctor's reply and thus satisfaction.

Hence please answer the following:
1) Why were you using primolut N?
2) When did you stop taking Primolut N?
3) Are you having regular periods?
4) When did you have your periods last time?
5) By how many days do you want to delay your periods?
6) You are not taking any treatment for hypertension. What are your latest Blood Pressure records?
7)Has someone prescribed you to take meprate or levetto? For which problem?

Awaiting an early response.
Regards.

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.

Now that you are not having any spotting for last one month and you do not want to delay your periods, it is best to get yourself investigated thoroughly for the cause of irregular spotting like ultrasound scan, blood hormone levels, physical examination, pap smear, vaginal swab, etc.

After finding out the cause then only it is best to start the proper treatment under the guidance of your gynecologist.

Wishing you an early recovery.
Regards.
