Hello Anonymous,

You know that Postinor was effective in preventing pregnancy if you have vaginal bleeding after taking it.

I must warn you that you should never take an emergency contraceptive more than once during a one month menstrual cycle.
You can seriously upset the hormonal balance that regulates your menstrual cycle.

Since you did take two doses 12 days apart, you might have vaginal bleeding soon or not. Your next period could be later than expected.

Consider talking with your primary care physician or gynecologist about this. Postinor 2 is intended to be used in emergency situations and not as regular birth control.

Regards,
Maryann

Hi Anonymous,

As I stated in my first sentence in my first reply, "You know that Postinor was effective in preventing pregnancy if you have vaginal bleeding after taking it."

If you do not have bleeding within three weeks of taking the pill, then take a pregnancy test.

That is the only way to know if you are pregnant.

Regards,
Maryann

Hello Anonymous,

If you normally have a regular menstrual cycle, have been sexually active since your last period, and this month's period is late by at least one week, then take a home pregnancy test.
