Brief Answer:
no chances of pregnancy with this episode; need details of earlier episode.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.

I can understand your concerns.

You had unprotected intercourse on 4th and expect your period on 6th march. For this episode, there is no need to take postinor 2. There are no chances of pregnancy after this episode.

I just want to know about the previous episode. You had your periods on 6th feb. When did you had intercourse? At what time did you take postinor 2 that day?

Hope to hear form you soon.

Thanks.

i had unprotected sex on the 2nd feburary took postinor 2 and again on the 12 march . i again took postinor 2 on the same day 12hrs interval.(12th and 13th).

i felt slight abdominal pain today the 4th march but still had unprotected sex. does it mean am ovulating . will i be pregnant?

normally my period is supposed to be due on the 6th march.
i meant the 2nd unprotected sex was on the 12th feburary.

Brief Answer:
Negligible chances of pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the details.

Sorry for the late response.

As you took the postinor pills in time after intercourse on 2 feb as well as 12 feb, the chances of pregnancy are negligible.

The intercourse on 4th march was within safe period, so again there are no chances of pregnancy.

The abdominal pain might most probably be a pre-menstrual symptom and not suggestive of ovulation.

Hope this helps.

Feel free to discuss further.

Kindly close the discussion if you have no more queries and give your valuable feedback.

anyway i use pregnancy test strip today to check for possibility but it was negative.

so does it mean i have already past ovulation time? was very worried since i read that postinor 2 delays ovulation so i was thinking maybe i am now ovulating because i took it on the 12th n 13th feburary and that ,it may have delayed ovulation till now.

Brief Answer:
ovulation time passed.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again.
Sorry for the delayed reponse.

The postinor pills may delay or inhibit ovulation so that sperms can not get ovum to fertilise and there is anovulatory bleeding.

Since you are approaching date of your expected periods, you must have passed your ovulation time.

Also as your pregnancy test is negative, so it further suggests that there is no pregnancy.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
