Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Thank you for reaching out to us with your question.

Postinor 2 prevents pregnancy by preventing ovulation. That protection lasts for one menstrual cycle. The pill should never be taken more than one in a one month menstrual cycle.

If you took the pill this month, do not take it again.

Regards,
Maryann
