Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Primolut-N contains only progesteron, which is less commonly used for delaying periods.
You have to start oral contraceptive pills. As these are prescription drug, you have to consult gynecologist for it. You can start pill from 5th day of menstrual cycle.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards.
