Hallow Dear,
Postinor 2 is a Progestational medicine which is known to delay the menses. Hence, you should not be stressed for the delayed menses. You may safely wait for about a week expectantly for your menses to appear, provided you have taken Postinor 2 within 72 hours of the unprotected sex.
If even after one week of the missed period you do not get the periods, better rule out the pregnancy by urine test or Beta hCG test before you take any medicines to have withdrawal bleeding.
Gynaecosid is an Oestrogen preparation. After this medicine, you will get withdrawal bleeding; however, the bleeding will be rather heavy. Hence I would suggest you to go for some Progestational preparation like Deviry for 5 days; 4-7 days after that you will get moderate withdrawal bleeding.
I hope this helps you.
