When me and my boyfriend lost control at a point ,i think he came on or near my vagina although we ddnt have sex.he denies that he came but since I was worried so I took postinor about 26-28 hours later and the second pill 12 hours after.its been it's been over 72 hours since I had the second pill and I'm having no pains or nausea but slight cramps which I normally get before my period but now they last for about 3-5 hours and I have vaginal discharge occasionally.can anyone help me know whther I'm pregnant or whther the pill would work??

Hi, Anon.

Thank you for writing.

Emergency contraceptives are up to 95% effective when taken as prescribed within the first 24 hours, so the risk is very small. Side effects can include stomach aches, headaches, nausea and a general feeling of being unwell. Symptoms usually start 2-7 days after taking the medication and may or may not include bleeding or spotting. Not all women get symptoms. If you don’t get your next period within a week or so of its expected date, a pregnancy test is recommended. It can cause your period to be early or late, have a lighter or a heavier flow.
