Brief Answer:
Wait for withdrawal bleeding.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
After taking Primolut-N for three days it takes 3-4 days for the bleeding to start. It is better to continue taking Primolut for five days and after you stop taking it, there will be a withdrawal bleeding in next 3-5 days.
In case still there is no bleeding then it is best to rule out pregnancy using test kit available at all the pharmacies.
Other causes like stress, anxiety , change in diet and environment or hormonal changes can also cause a delay in periods. If there is no withdrawal bleeding in next 5 days then do consult a gynecologist for investigations to find out the cause and further treatment.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
