Hello Anonymous,

It is very likely that your period was earlier than expected and flow was lighter than normal because of taking Postinor. Changes, such as these, are a reported side effect of the pill.

I had sex with my girlfriend 3 days after her free period and she took the prostinor in about 82 hours later which is 72hours plus extra 10 hours. So can she get pregnant ?

Hello Anonymous,

She did take the pill very late. But, there may not have been a risk for becoming pregnant with sex just three days after her period ended.

Bleeding or her next period will tell you that she did not become pregnant.

Hello Anonymous,

Postinor 2 is effective if taken within 72 hours or 3 days of having unprotected sex. She needs to wait for bleeding to happen. This will show that the pill worked and she did not become pregnant.

Hello Anonymous,

You will know whether or not Postinor 2 worked once you have vaginal bleeding or your next period. The pill is most effective when taken as directed.

Hi, so I had sex on Friday and Saturday and I took the postinor 2 two tablets on Sunday , I then had sex on Monday and took one pill of postinor 2 , since Wednesday my tummy had been hurting and it's been seeming like I want to throw up and that's it, oh and I've been getting hungry but then after some time the hunger leaves so what could be the possible problem? I don't want to get pregnant please
