I took both pills in one dosage, is this dangerous or less effective? Also, what are the usual side effects after taking the pills and how soon after? I took the pills about a 17 days ago and now I'm spotting ( not heavy but blood is present). Could this be a side effect?

Hello Anonymous,

Changes in the menstrual cycle are a reported side effect of Postinor 2. This is a longer than normal delay. Have you taken the pill often?

I took 5sets of p2 in a single week.I didn't know it was dangerous till I started reading all these comments and now I'm scared because I'm seeing all the signs of pregnancy yet its still a week I had sex.I was on birth control program and I failed to renew so I thought p2 was the solution. I need an answer pls.
Ps.I'm experiencing bleeding and cramps.am I gonna die?

Hello Anonymous,

Call your gynecologist or get to an urgent care center now. You overdosed on Postinor 2 and seriously upset the hormonal balance that regulates your menstrual cycle.

Hello Anonymous,

Yes. Taking two tablets of Postinor 2 at the same time and within 24 hours after unprotected sex will still be effective.

Hello Anonymous,

You took Postinor 2 more than you should have. Please speak with your gynecologist about this. Taking the pill so often may have caused a hormonal imbalance that will affect your menstrual cycle and getting your period.
