Hi,
I have gone through your query and i can understand your anxiety.

If you have taken postinor 2 within 24 hours, 95% chance of preventing pregnancy & within 72 hours, 58% chance of preventing  & after 72hrs, results are not sure.

But it’s repeated intake can also results in side effects like tiredness, nausea and vomiting ,stomach pain, diarrhoea, dizziness, headache, tender breasts, increased vaginal bleeding and skin reactions.

Hope i have answered your query. Let me know if i can assist you further. Take care.

Regards
