Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Primolut N produces bleeding within 8 days of stopping. The moment you stopped Primolut N, and took emergency pill, the effect of primolut N was added up.
Emrgency contraceptives are also high dose hormones. They cause only withdrawal bleeding 8 days of intake. The period is delayed by a week and you would get menses 8 days delayed in case if there is no pregnancy.
You should wait for periods for 8 to 10 days of taking emergency pill.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale
