default
Posted on Mon, 13 Jul 2015
Question: i had unprotected sex on day 2 of my mensturation. Please can I get pregnant. Also out of panic I took Postinor2, will this affect my current flow or future flow? A few days after this I noticed stains when I go to pee. Now 10-11 days after seeing real blood. Please I'm really scared.

Brief Answer:
You cannot be pregnant!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

You cannot ever get pregnant during menstruation. There is no reason to even bother about this.

Postinor 2 is a hormone and clearly would interfere with the cycle. This explains the changes you noted during the periods and 1days after. The good news is that this will return to normal spontaneously without need for further medical attention.

Please, protection during intercourse is capital to prevent both pregnancy and possible risk of STDs. Always make an effort to protect yourself.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Thank you for the prompt reply. I forget a vital detail. I also took the pill about a week earlier to this incident. Also hope the drugs won't damage any thing
