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?

If someone after an unprotected sex takes the first Postinor - 2 Tablet at about 2.30pm daytime and the second tablet at 2.30am (night), will it be effective considering the reduced rate of metabolism at night?

Hi,pls when pregnancy is ruled out thru bpt after taking postinor2 has been taken twice in a month,will it be wise to go immediately for IUD. If not, can postinor be taken since d period is not out yet and unprotected sex occurred in the next month.

Hello Anonymous,
Postinor 2 is estimated to be effective in preventing pregnancy 85% of the time. When taken within the first 24 hours, it is 95% effective. You took the pill after 48 hours, so you are well protected.
Anonymous, did your boyfriend penetrate your vagina?
I strongly suggest, that if you continue to be sexually active, consider using birth control regularly. An emergency contraceptive, like Postinor 2 -SD, is intended for emergency use. It should not be taken as a form of birth control.
There is only limited data available on Postinor-2 when taken by women aged 14-16 years.

Hello Anonymous,
I can appreciate how frightened you must feel right now. Your body is responding to an overdose of the very strong synthetic hormone that is found in Postinor 2.
Do not take any more pills. This pill is intended to be used in emergency situations only, and not as a regular form of birth control.
Anonymous, it sounds like this happened in the last two weeks. Am I correct? If so, please call your physician, report what has happened and follow any recommendations.
