Hello dear
Understand your concern
Yes you can take primolut N for irregular period but under the advice of gynaecologist after finding the cause of delayed/irregular period.
I think following possibility of delayed period in not sexually active:
Ovarian cyst/PCOS, hormonal imbalance, Stress, change in life style and eating habit, thyroid disorder.
Following investigations are required: Reproductive hormone analysis, thyroid hormone analysis, USG scab and ovarian follicle study.
In hormonal imbalance and PCOS, primolut N or OCP should be used to regularize the period.
Primolut n 5 mg twice daily should be taken for 5-7 days. Once you stop the drug bleeding will come in next 4-5 days.
But if similar problem occur in future then you have to use primolut N in second half of the phase for 4-6 cycle or birth control pill regularly for 4-6 cycle.
So consult the gynecologist and take proper mediation after evaluation.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
