Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Once you stop taking Primolut, you would have your period within a week at the most.
For how long have you been prescribed the tablets ?
Generally the course for progesterone withdrawal is given for 5 - 7 days.
So if you started last Friday, take them for 5 days, and then once you stop, you will have a withdrawal bleeding within a week of stopping.
All the best
