Brief Answer:
Pregnancy not likely

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Swollen vaginal area and improper drainage from vagina is most likely due to vaginal infection.
Moreover, since she has taken prostinor 2 within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse, the chances of pregnancy are minimal.
I suggest her to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined internally and treated accordingly.
Pregnancy cannot be detected before she misses her next periods.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you both good health.
Regards

* But this time she got same tablet last two weeks (25th Oct and 1st Nov) and she didn't menses till now , Is that mean tablets not working ?

* I sow in medical site " swollen vaginal area and improper drainage of the veins in the region" happen due to pregnancy

Dear Sir me and my girlfriend so worried about this matter ...! because of this symptoms...!

Doctor, I didn't receive answers for last two question? Brief Answer:
Wait for the withdrawal bleeding

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
Pregnancy can be detected only at around the time of missed periods.
Moreover, swollen vagina and improper drainage of veins in the vagina present in pregnancy, if at all, then it is present in third trimester of pregnancy. These symptoms are not present so early in pregnancy.
Taking two emergency contraceptive pills in one week also has delayed the the withdrawal bleeding due to hormonal changes. I will suggest her to wait for at least 5-7 days after the last pill intake for the withdrawal periods to occur.
Prostinor1 is an effective emergency contraceptive pill.
Nothing can be done after72 hours of the intercourse to prevent the pregnancy, if it has occurred, and she has to wait for the next expected periods.
If delayed, and pregnancy test is positive, then abortion can be done by medical method, using medicines.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
You can get back to me for further queries later by asking a direct question to me on the health care magic portal.

Brief Answer:
Vaginal infection likely

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
She is likely having vaginal infection, and hence spotting and vaginal swelling.
I will suggest her to wait for the periods, if they are delayed by the expected date, then she should do a urine pregnancy test.
However, she should consult an OBGYN specialist now for proper examination and treatment of vaginal infection.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
