Question : Hi Sir,
My Wife has taken Primolut N for 3 days (one tab/day). After 10 days of consumption we had gone with pregnancy test and it is positive. Details as follows.

Last menses date: 23 rd March

Primolut N used days : April 30, May 1st and 2nd

Pregnancy test done : May 12th

Now my query is do we have any adverse side effect on foetus as we used primolut N in early pregnancy. Can we continue with pregnacy or need to go with some tests?

Thanks, XXXXXXX
