Brief Answer:
Variations of hormones

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I read your query and I understand your concerns about delayed periods.

Following is my reply:

1) These delayed periods are due to variation in your body hormone caused due to taking postinor twice.

2) There is no chance of pregnancy as you had sexual intercourse during safe period.

3) This variation of hormones is delaying periods and there is no chance of pregnancy.

4) Please wait for another 10 days without any medicines for periods to occur.

I hope I answered your query. I will be available for any follow up query you have.

Regards,
Dr. Soumya
