Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Thank you for your question and I think I can help you.

You are not pregnant. Vaginal bleeding indicates that taking Postinor 2, even only one pill, was effective. There was no need to take this emergency contraceptive because you had just finished your period. It was too early in your menstrual cycle for ovulation.

However, you may notice that your next period starts earlier or later than normal. Menstrual flow might be lighter or heavier than normal. Both are reported side effects.

Regards,
Maryann
