General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Thanks for posting on HCM,

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
