Hi,
Primalute is a progesterone preparation and it is not safe in lactating mother. You can take Tranexemic acid or Ethamsylate tablets for symptomatic relief and in case of persistent bleeding, you can consult a gynecologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
