Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum

Postinor is pretty reliable when preventing unwanted pregnancy however no method is 100% accurate, but generally the possiblity of pregnancy is very low, almost negligible if this was taken as instructed.
There are instances where pregnancy have occurred with contraceptives. If intercourse was not during ovulation, then there are no chances of pregnancy. Anyways go for urine pregnancy test kit in your home with morning urine sample for confirmation if there will be delayed period.

All the best.
