Hi!
Welcome to healthcaremagic.com.Postinor is only an emergency contraceptive not a regular one.There are several factors while using it-It can help to prevent a pregnancy if taken within 72 hours (3 days) of unprotected sex. It is more effective the sooner it is taken following unprotected sex.Postinor-2 are not for use as a regular method of contraception because of the increased possibility of failure compared to other methods of contraception.
After taking Postinor-2, you should use another method of contraception (condoms or cap plus spermicide), or not to have sex until your next period.Please do a urine test if she misses her period .there are chances that she could get pregnant.
