Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.Primolut injections contain progesterone which are given in patients with high risk of preterm labour like history of previous preterm delivery, short cervical length in ultrasound or by clinical examination or twin pregnancy.
Moreover, it not given so early in pregnancy.
In my opinion, these injections have no role at 7 weeks of pregnancy
Hope you found the answer helpful.
