Hello Anonymous,

Yes, you were protected from becoming pregnant the second time as well. Postinor 2 prevents pregnancy by preventing ovulation and causing changes in the cervical mucus, to make it harder for sperm to reach an egg, if ovulation has already occurred.

It cannot be repeated enough - an emergency contraceptive is meant to be used in an emergency situation, and should not be used as a form of birth control.

Anonymous, if you do not want to become pregnant. please use some type of birth control, be it condoms or an oral birth control pill regularly. Overusing an emergency contraceptive will actually make it less effective for you.

Regards,
Maryann

Hello Anonymous,

Since you took the pill within one hour, there is a 95% chance that it will prevent pregnancy. Vaginal bleeding will indicate it worked.
