Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for seeking our help with your concern that your period is delayed.

Your period is late because you have seriously upset the hormones that regulate your menstrual cycle. You overdosed.

Postinor 2, like all the other emergency contraceptives, is intended to be use in an emergency situation and never should be taken more than once in a month. Emergency contraceptive contain a very high dose of the same synthetic hormone found in most birth control pills. It works by preventing ovulation.

For now, do not take another emergency contraceptive pill. Have your partner wear a condom. Report this to your primary care physician or gynecologist for further advice.

Regards,
Maryann
