Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking Postinor 2 After Unprotected Intercourse?
Had my period 14 August and had unprotected sex on 27,28 of the same month. I took postinor2 @6pm on the 28 and 6am on the 29. I m scared and fell sick and also has abdominal pains .i have test urine and it s negative. I want to know whether I can be pregnant
Hello dear I understand your concern Postinor 2 is 95 % effective in preventing the pregnancy. So chance of the pregnancy is 1-5% in your case. Your abdominal pain is due to side effect of the postinor 2. Pregnancy test will give positive result 8-10 days after the missed period. You have did test very early and this time pregnancy test will give false negative result because beta HCG value is less than 25 mIU/ml. Take meftal spas for pain Take rest Take healthy diet and drink plenty of water
Postinor 2 also cause delay in the period by the 8-10 days. So if period will delay by the 12-14 days, go for blood HCG test and or urine pregnancy test to confirm the pregnancy. Avoid stress as stress itself cause delay in the period Hope this may help you
