Brief Answer:
Primolut pills wont help

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns for stopping periods .

Following is my reply:

1. You cannot stop periods once it has started. You could have postponed with primolut N if taken earlier.

2. There are no medicines which can stop your periods now.

3. You will have to wait for periods to get over.

I hope your doubt is clarified. Let me know if you wish any other information.

Regards,
Dr. Soumya

To clarify i started norculat on 10/1 as i am going for vacation in 11/2 (which IS exactly my first period date) the dosage was 2 pills per day. The doktor said i should take norculat for as long as i want my period to be delayed, but on 14/2 i got my period despite following the doc instruction. What actully happen?

Brief Answer:
You should have started the tablets earlier

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Since your periods were to start on 11/2, you should have started pills little earlier around 6/2. You started pills late. That is the reason pills were ineffective and you got your periods.
