HELLO DEAR
I understand your problem, As primolut contains progesterone which is essential hormone for maintenance of pregnancy. You have to take these injection every week till 12 weeks of pregnancy after that progesterone will be produced by placenta then you can stop these injection. If you have still complain of bleeding on primolut you can add HCG injection every fortnightly. And in the last don't forget bed rest. BEST OF LUCK
THANKS
