What Causes Delayed Periods After Taking Postinor?
I had unprotected sex on the 1st of Oct but during my safe period and also 7th and 8th but took postinor 2 on the 9th by noon (2tabs) now my period is delayed by almost one week, after 2 negative pregnancy test. What is the problem? My boobs are still heavy n I still have menstrual pain.
Postinor can cause delayed periods so I would advise you to repeat a urine pregnancy test after 1 week. If it's negative then I think a course of medroxyprogesterone tablet will be required, if the test comes positive then there may be requirement of a medical abortion. Also, I would suggest you to get a thyroid profile test done.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
