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,

You should have vaginal bleeding within three weeks of taking the pill. Some women notice changes in their menstrual cycle. For example, your next period may start earlier or later than normal.

Other commonly experienced side effects are noted on the package insert.

Regards,
Maryann

I have not had sex in two years until 8pm of 6th November, 2014 when i had an unprotected sex after which I took two tablets of postinor2 as a single dose with an anti-malaria tablet called fansidar around 11pm of the same day. Realizing that I took an overdose of postinor2 I took two spoons of palm oil as a measure against the overdose. On the 9th of November, my body gave me signs I usually do have when my menstrual period(which is due) is about to start but till now there has been no bleeding. I am worried because since the morning of the fifth day, I have been feeling nausea, tired, having cough and sore throat so I went for a PTest which states negative.
Please, I need you to kindly explain to me what is likely to be happening. Am I pregnant?
Thanks

Hello ma, does it mean that someone having vaginal
bleeding some days after the postinor 2 pill is sign
that there is no possibility that the person could
be pregnant. Because since i asked you a question on
this postinor 2 and the experiences i had after taking
the pill some days after i had unprotected sex with
my partner.
They are, i repeat:
1. Pains while urinating which has stopped since the
past two weeks now
2. Pains by the side of my stomach which has also stopped
3. I experienced 3 days vaginal bleeding few days after
taking the drugs, but am still worried if am pregnant
or not because i have not conducted any test on that
and have not started experiencing any pregnancy signs.
Please Ma'am, once again i need to be sure if there is
any possibility of getting pregnant with this signs that i
told you. Explain further.....

hello Anonymous,

Since it is a little over one month since you had an abortion, you should contact the physician who performed the procedure. Have you had unprotected sexual intercourse since the abortion? If so, pregnancy is possible.

Regards,
Maryann
