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

I think it can be a side effect of Primolut N. I think you should go for an evaluation first. Get a thyroid profile and prolactin level and an ultrasound done to see the uterus and ovaries to find out the cause of irregular periods. If anything is abnormal, it should be treated. You may need some hormonal treatment. Talk to your doctor regarding this. You can take some medicines like Tranexamic Acid to stop the bleeding.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Khushboo Priya
