I've just started taking Primolut N 5 mg twice a day to delay my period, but it still began today. I'm not sure if I should keep taking the pills or stop. Is there any chance that my period might stop if I continue with them? And if I decide to quit, what happens with the two pills I've already taken? I'm really confused about what to do next.

Since your period has already started, its likely best to stop taking the Primolut-N. The tablets youve already taken may have a mild effect on the flow and duration, but they wont stop your period now. If you continue to have concerns or if you experience abnormal bleeding, its important to check with your doctor for personalized advice.

I recently took the I pill and I'm a bit worried about what to expect. How many days might my period be delayed because of taking it? Also, will this change my menstruation cycle permanently to the new dates? I'm curious and a little concerned about how this could affect my cycle.

I'm really concerned about this ongoing heavy bleeding I've been experiencing for the past three weeks. It's been diagnosed as uterine polyps around 2cm, and the bleeding isn't stopping even with taking Pause and Sylate. Is there any way to control the bleeding without having to remove the polyps?

Given the heavy bleeding and ineffectiveness of Pause and Sylate, consider consulting your gynecologist
