Thank you for the response. I have not had sex again. Cant even try that cos i am really worried. My period was supposed to have been on the 2nd of September but i guess because of the Postinor 2 it came earlier and so had my period late August. I can not even remember the date now but sometime late August. So i reckon I ought to have commenced my period for September by now since my cycle is usually 25 to 28 days. I have had cramps and similar period commencement feelings but nothing except for mucus discharge. dont know what that means

Hello Anonymous,

You should only be worried if you have had unprotected intercourse since your last period.

Some women will start their next period earlier or later than normal after taking the pill. Generally, the next monthly period is not off by more than five days.

When you had what your are calling your period, was that when your period for August was due?

How late is your period for September?

Regards,
Maryann
