Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM,
Firstly rule out any pregnancy with a urine pregnancy test as you have missed your menses by more than a month now. Also take an ultrasound pelvis to check for endometrial thickness which if more than 9mm then you may take Primolut N 5mg twice a day for as long as you want to delay your menses and then when you wish to get a withdrawal just stop it and bleeding should ensue in next 7 days.
