Could Intake Of Postinor 2 After Having Unprotected Sex Cause Delayed Periods?

Hi I had unprotected sex on the last day of my period ( sept 24) I took postinor 2 the next morning. Then I had protected sex on the 6th oct. My period was due on the 19th of October and I'm 8 days late. I took a home pregnancy test and it was negative. Can the morning after pill cause my period to be late?
Please help

Hi,

Thank you so much for trusting us with your health query.

It seems this question has been waiting for so long. I don't know whether it would be helpful.

Yes, this drug can cause a change in a regular without being caused by pregnancy. with a negative pregnancy test, I will suggest that you stay calm.

Please, consider adopting a more reliable contraceptive method to stay clear of this situation in future. Talk to your doctor if this is something you would want to try.


I hope you find this helpful. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and please do feel free to ask for more information if need. Thanks.
