Hello and thanks for the query,

I am Dr Nilajkumar a consultant gynecologist and I will be helping you in your queries.

Taking primolut N does not affect future periods especially if it is taken for a short time. You may need to begin it a day or two before the expected period and continue for 3-4 days. Periods usually come within the next 7 days after stopping primolute. However the period after this will follow the new cycle and may be delayed or come early by a few days till new rhythm is established.
Hope this helped your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
Have a good day.
