Used Two Postinor Tablets Together. Have Spotting. Could I Be Pregnant?

Good day sir. Pls I'm just a bit worried. I had sex on d 4th of April which was d 4th day of my period. I started on the 1st of April and was just spotting on the 4th day. I used postinor 2 16hrs after but I used the 2doses at the same time. When I realized I was meant to take them apart,I used another single tablet about 38hours after. Now just yesterday,12th of April,I noticed I was spotting. Could I be pregnant?

Hi,
Thanks for query.
You have taken prostinor 2 which is emergecy contraceptive pill,but you have to take this 2 tab in 12 hrs. apart as early as possible after sexual intercourse or with in 24hrs.
I think you are not pregnant.
You should consult a gynae because your dose ofmedication not proper.
Spotting is side effect of medicine also.
You should go for USG and blood test.
As such this drug is not having any major side effects but if pregnancy you should immedieately stop this medication.
Take care.
