Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I think you should visit a gynecologist to evaluate the situation and find the cause of bleeding because getting periods twice in 3 weeks is not normal especially when Primolut-N doesn't work. He can find the cause of bleeding by doing an ultrasound and a complete blood count and platelet count evaluation.

Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
