Hello dear
Understand your concern
According to your history your period is late for ten days. You have to go for pregnancy test or Blood HCG or USG scan that diagnose pregnancy as failure rate of postinor 2 is 5 percent if it is taken with 24 hour after unprotected intercourse. If pregnancy test is negative it may be side effects of postinor 2 as it cause hormonal imbalance. For that consult the gynecologist and diagnose the problem after proper testing
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
