Brief Answer:
Primolut N can cause depression and bloating.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for trusting HealthcareMagic

Primolut N can cause depressed mood and bloating. Since you have been taking Primolut for 14 days when the symptoms started, it could possibly due to Primolut N.
Mood changes, bloating etc could also be premenstrual symptoms.
If the symptoms are bothering you, please be advised to follow up with your treating physician to see if another medication (depending on cause for which Primolut has been prescribed ) is right for you.
