Hello emillythong,

Generally, vaginal bleeding after taking Postinor 2 means the pill was effective in preventing pregnancy.

If your period does not start within the next seven days, take a pregnancy test. That is the only way to know.

Hello emillythong,

Welcome to the EmpowHER community and thank you for reaching out to us with your concern about vaginal bleeding.

Bleeding means the emergency contraceptive was effective in preventing pregnancy. It is possible that your next monthly menstrual period could start earlier or later than expected. Changes in the menstrual cycle are a side effect that some women experience.

Regards,
Maryann
