Intake Of Postinor 2 Tablets On Consecutive Days For A Week. Side Effects Or Possible Pregnancy?
Hi, i have taken Postinor 2 tablets (single dose) for three days somewhat consecutively i.e. First use was Saturday, second use was Tuesday and the third use was on Thursday. My questions are:-
1) What are the chances of me still conceiving during this time although i took the tablets
2) What are the effects on my womb/body from the consecutive use of the tablets?
3) Would this overuse cause infertility? (i have taken the tablets quite frequently over the years)

Hi,
I have a suggestion to make for you. If you are in need of the pill Postinor 2 quite often, then you rather take a contraceptive pill like Yaz or Microgynon on regular basis or go in for implanon insertion. It is easy and safe, and effective. You need to go for one implanon insertion just every 3 months.
Coming to your answers:
- The chances of you conceiving are almost nil.
- The effects would be that there would be more of progesterone stimulation of the uterus and its lining. It could cause variation in the duration, days and amount of blood flow in your menstrual cycle.
- As such, the pill does not cause infertility.
I hope you get to understand my thoughts and think over it.
Wish you good health.
