Should Postinor 2 Be Taken After Each Unprotected Non Penetrative Sex?
i had fun with my girlfriend by rubbing my penis on her vagina on the 8th day of her cycle, and ejaculated on her vulva around her vagina, after which she took postinor 2, 4-5hours later after ejaculation, in the night around 10pm.Then early in the morning around 3-4am..we did rubbing again completely naked and the condom broke, the semen spilled on her vulva again around the vagina. my girlfriend is still a virgin cause we just do rubbing of my penis on her vagina. am scared she will get pregnant. will the postinor 2 take care of the second spillage of semen. thanks for your help.
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. Postinor 2 is an emergency contraceptive pill. It needs to be taken in 2 doses of 12 hours apart within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. What your partner has done is right and she needs to take another scheduled dose of 2nd pill by 12 hours. This would take care of both the episodes during this event. To be protected from pregnancy, she needs to get her breakthrough bleeding within 3 weeks from the day of intake of the pill. Kindly use barrier methods like condom to ensure proper protection during sexual activities until she gets her bleeding in the form of periods. In case she doesn't get her bleeding by 3 weeks, she needs to seek medical attention immediately. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
