Took postinor after unprotected sex. Took second pill late. Can I get pregnant?
Patient: Hello,Just to be sure...last week Monday I had unprotected sex and I took Postinor 2 tablets. However, instead of taking the second pill 12 hours after, i took it 16 hours after. Will this cause me to be pregnant. I could wait for my monthly period which should be next week...but I just want to have an idea of the possible results. Doctor: Hello,Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.Postinor is 99% effective if taken within 24 hrs. Since you have received second dose after 16hrs, there is nothing to worry.Chances of you being pregnant is very minimum.i.e less than 1 %.So you need not worry. I suggest you to practice safe sex to prevent STD.Hope this helps.regards,Dr Nilofer
