Should Postpone-72 Be Repeated For Intercourse After Taking It?
Question: Hi, well me and my boyfriend kind of got caught in the moment and had an unprotected sex. The previous day we did I had taken postpone 72 after the intercourse, but of course he dint ejaculate inside me. Similarly we had an intercourse the next evening, again an unprotected one. I would like to know the chances of my pregnancy, I had taken postpone 72 just 14-15 hrs before the unprotected sex he had the second time. He dint ejaculate inside me both the times we had sex. Can you let me know if I should take another postpone 72? Or should I get into some other test?
Brief Answer:
Repeat the dose of postpone 72.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
Postpone 72 can prevent pregnancy which is caused by unprotected sex done before taking postpone 72.
If you had another episode of unprotected sex than you should repeat the pill to prevent pregnancy.
Hope found useful, feel free to discuss more information.
Good luck.
Regards

thanks for the response. I had abdominal pain this morning, not too much but to some extent. is this the side effect of postpone 72? If i take another dose of postpone 72, will it not cause any disruption to my regular periods cycle. I certainly do not want to get pregnant! What are the other ways to prevent preganancy apart from taking postpone 72. Kindly request you to help me with this.
Brief Answer:
The chances are very low.

Hello dear,
Sorry for a long delay in my response.
Yes,abdominal pain maybe a side effect of postpone 72( I-pill).
As you had two pill in one cycle,it may cause disturbance in your cycle and can cause period irregularities.
The chances of pregnancy are not there in your case,so do not take any stress and there is no need to take anything extra.
