Why Am I Having Bleeding And Cramps After 7 Days Of Taking Postinor?

I had my period from the 9th to 12 October. I took Postinor 2 on the 15th. Today is exactly seven days later (22nd) and I have bleeding and cramps. Is this caused by the pill? I read that withdrawal bleeding happens a couple of days after, not a whole week.

The bleeding can still be due to the pill, as it is common for postinor to cause irregular bleeding. You should return to having normal periods though over the next few weeks. Hope this answers your question, please let me know if you have any more questions.
