General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Each tablet of Postinor2 contains 750 micrograms of levonorgestrel.It's formulated to function in similar way as the female hormone progesterone.

One of the side effect of taking Postinor 2 in some women may be changes in their period, a heavier or lighter,or a period that is early or late.

If you do not get your period within 3 weeks of taking the tablets you must take a pregnancy test.

Kind regards,
Dr,Mersi
