I rubbed with my boyfriend but he could not enter because I am a virgin .However, he ejaculated and I wasn't sure if it touched my vagina. I took Postinor 2, twelve hours later since it was 4 days after my period. I have been having abdominal pain, breast hurt since. My period is due tomorrow but I have no spotting or any sign of it. Please help. Can I be pregnant?

Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for coming to us for help.

You were not at any risk for becoming pregnant. Without penetration and ejaculation, there was no chance.

Postinor 2 contains a high dose of a hormone called levonorgestrel, which prevents pregnancy by preventing ovulation. Your period probably won't start tomorrow because by taking the pill you upset the normal balance of hormones involved in the menstrual cycle. Basically, you "stopped" the process of ovulation.

It can take your body a little while to readjust. I don't know specifically how long. If you have any further concerns, speak with your physician.

Regards,
Maryann
