Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking Postinor-2 After Intercourse?
I have sex with my girl friend an I sperm in her she have just finish seeing her menses a day befor I sex her I gave her postinor 2. I sex her on 28 an she started bleeding on 2 of september an today is 3 she is still bleeding an she is affraid when we ll it stop pls I need help pls
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. Postinor 2 is an emergency contraceptive pill which needs to be taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. If she has taken it properly, then she needs to be protected. It will cause withdrawal bleeding within 3 weeks from the date of intake of pill. Since she has got that, her pregnancy should be negative. Bleeding ideally happens between 3 to 5 days as her usual periods. In case it didn't stop even after a week, you need to consult Gynecologist for its evaluation and management. Hope the information provided is clear. All the best.
