Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Let me explain you what is postnor i.e.levonorgestrel ?
This is a CONTRACEPTIVE pill and also used as an emergency contraceptive pill . If you take it regularly , can't get pregnancy.
However its long term use may develops many other side effects, so if possible avoid.
Once menses start & if sex done on ovulation day , chance of pregnancy is there.
So when you want pregnancy don't take postinor any more.
Good luck. Dr. HET
