What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy After Taking Postinor?
i had unprotected sex on the 30th of november and i took the prostinor 2 the 1st and 2nd of december. i also had unprotected sex n the 12th december and i took the pills the 13 and 14 of december. i have not seen my period to date. should i be concern as to whether or not im pregnant
I understand your worry. It seems you have taken the medication as rightfully indicated by the manufacturers. Postinor contains the active ingredient levonogestrel (progesterone only contraceptive) and it can be used as an emergency contraceptive pill. It usually can come with a side effect of missed period or bleeding. So, I believe you are not pregnant and you should not worry and give sometime for your period to start on its own. If does not come, you will have to do a urine PT just in case. See a doctor if problem persist.
Best wishes. Dr. Nsah
