Is Nordette Safe To Avoid Pregnancy ?
Hi! I'm trying to calm myself down and I really need to know.
I'm 22 and I just want to know what are the chances of me being pregnant if I took Nordette as an ECP (4 pills 2 hours or less after the "deed" and 4 pills 12 hours after my first dose). There was no penetration and I bled 6 days after my 2nd dosage. I'm spotting until now and it's been a week (or more) since the bleeding started.
Dec 13: Deed and 2 hours later took the 1st dose
Dec 14: 12 hours after the 1st dose took the second does
Dec 14-18: WAITING
Dec 19: BLEEDING
DEC 23-Now: Spotting
Although I do get dizzy and I get headaches often (even before the ECP and the "deed") I have not experienced any other pregnancy symptoms.

Hi, THE pills you have taken & time of consumption is sufficient for avoiding
the pregnancy this time . The bleeding will be abnormal this time,because of the hormonal imbalance caused . But to use it routinely is not adviced.
Let the bleeding subside on it's own & then Please start using pills regularly,so as to avoid side effects of high dose in future.
Thanks.
