hi, The Postenor pill is a hormonal preaparation serving as immergency contraceptive.it has side effects like nausea,vomitting(gastric disturbences), fatigue,breast tenderness, abortion for a transient time. But if it is repeated frequently with a gap less than 1 month, it can have a sevier effect with swelling abdomen,gases (long lasting), chill & fever. You have repeated the dose ,which I am afraid has resulted in your present situation. I would request you to takea pill of metoproclamide twice a day with a gap of 12 hours. you will get some releif with that The proper way of management would be by taking a doctor;s advice, physical check up, investigations as needed & treatment. Immergency pills are ment for immergency use only , Pl. never take it as a routine measure. Pl. adapt some alternative method for regular use. Take care. Thanks.
