Hi,

It is considered to be safe for the unborn baby. Primolut-N is a synthetic form of female hormone progesterone which is commonly prescribed to postpone the period, to regularize the menstrual cycles and other conditions.

Since your period is already delayed by 11 days, get the home pregnancy test done to know whether you are pregnant or not. If taken during an early pregnancy Primolut-N actually supports pregnancy and reduces the risk of miscarriage or pre term delivery. There is no evidence that it causes any harmful effects on the growing unborn baby.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
