hello,

1) Confirmation of pregnancy and estimation of current gestational age are to be done through TVS scan at the earliest. It will also help to determine the time of conceiving.

2) PRIMOLUT-N contains norethisterone and it may cause virilization of female fetus if it is taken after 5th weeks. However, it does not cause any gross birth defect.

3) You should consult with your gynecologist as soon as possible and do periodic check up. Start to take folic acid and vitamins. Do other anomaly scan as per schedule.

Good luck.
