Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking Oral Contraceptive?
hi I had my period on 18/09/2015 and we had unprotected sex on 23/09/2014 then i took prostino 2 within 24 hours (1st one after 12 hours and 2nd one after 24 hours) my next period date should be 14/10/2015 and i had menstral pains on 12/10/2015 so i thought its safe and had unprotected sex on that day. but still i havent got my periods and its 7 days delay now. can this be due to prostino 2?

Hi, I understand your concern. You had sex on 23-9-15. , that is on 5th day of menses. that was in safe period( as you had regular 28 days cycle )-- and actually not needed. Postinor is an emergency contraceptive & acts by postponing ovulation . .. this means your regular ovulation was postponed by postinor ( After 28th of September, when you had no contraceptive protection../ usually after three weeks of postinor there is bleeding. In your case it was expected on13th of Octber. Wait for .a couple of days for bleeding , otherwise go for pregnancy test ( blood test) which will exactly give pregnancy status. Thanks. This might have caused conception.
