I took both pills in one dosage, is this dangerous or less effective? Also, what are the usual side effects after taking the pills and how soon after? I took the pills about a 17 days ago and now I'm spotting ( not heavy but blood is present). Could this be a side effect?

Hello Anonymous,
Thank you for your question. You must talk with your physician. Why would you continue taking Postinor? It is an emergency contraceptive and should not be taken as birth control. It is intended for emergency use only and should not be taken more than once in a month.

Hello Anonymous,
You are not pregnant because you had vaginal bleeding two days after taking Postinor 2. Vaginal bleeding indicates the pill worked.
Never take more than one dose of the emergency contraceptive in a one month period.

I have question, will the postinor work, if a girl took the 1st pill more than 24 hours (30 hrs exactly) after unprotected sex, and the 2nd pill 12 hours after that as instructed?

Dear doctor, pls I was on my ovulation period wen I played wit my partner, we didn't really ve sex bt his penis was on my vagina. He tried penetrating bt due to d fact dat my vagina was very tight he couldn't penetrate so he decided to leave it there. He kept tryin till he ejaculated. I took postinor 2 within 24 hrs bt its a newmonth and my period hasn't stil arrived, I've been havin sharp pains in my vagina and my nipple dat usually comes wen I wnt 2 see my period, am confused! Could it be dat am pregnant? Doctor pls I nid ur help

Hello Anonymous,
Thank you for your question. If you do not start your period within three weeks of taking Postinor 2, take a home pregnancy test. That will tell you if you are pregnant or not.
