General & Family Physician,  's  Response
HI,
Thanks for your query. I understand your concern.
The postinor is a hormonal emergency contraceptive. It acts by postponing ovulation. You had sex near to your ovulation & so took postinor.on 5th March . It must have postponed your ovulation.. while you had sex again on 8th .& ovulation was postponed.. there is rare chance of pregnancy(As sperms are active till 3 days from ejaculation.).
- Postinor also causes delay in periods because of interfering with ovulation.. so though 8 th was just 8 days early to your normal period.. is turned about 2 weeks earlier to the changed menses date due to postinor consumption.
Thanks.
