Is Nordette Still Effective Without A Withdrawal Bleeding?

I had unprotected sex and after 8 hrs I took 4 Nordette pills, another 4 pills 12hrs later. It has been a week since I took Nordette but there is no withdrawal bleeding yet. Is withdrawal bleeding required to confirm nordette worked as ecp? How do I know that using Nordette the way I used it is effective to prevent pregnancy apart from using pregnancy test kits? When should I expect my period?

Hi,

Withdrawal bleed is not required to confirm its efficacy. You can go for a urine pregnancy test (UPT) after two weeks for confirming whether you are pregnant or not. Wishing you good health.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
