welcome

primolut is just a progesterone which we prescribe in first trimester to prevent pregnancy loss. So i suggest don't panic because this may occur one in hundred cases. if you want to continue your pregnancy you can but strictly consult your gynecologist regularly and get the anamoly scan in second trimester to rule out congenital abnormalities.

Wish you goodluck
