Hi good evening Doctor ,I am 21years old on the 8th of July I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend I took Postinor 2 that evening.One week after on the 14th I started bleeding and I bled for a week,it looked like menstrual bleeding.My period is nine days late and I’m scared I might be pregnant.The heavy vaginal bleeding I experienced for a week is that of my cycle.I don’t want to be pregnant
Hi, If you have taken Postinor 2 as recommended then you shouldn't be pregnant. The first tablet of Postinor 2 should be taken exactly 12 hours of unprotected intercourse and not later than 72 hours. The second tablet should be taken 12 hours after the second tablet. If you have made some mistake in taking the medications then the risk of getting pregnant is there. Contact your gynecologist if you are not getting your periods or do a pregnancy test with the first midstream urine. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
