Hi,

Your hormone levels would surely be altered when hormonal pills like postinor is used. Your body needs time to adjust to the new hormone levels, flush out the drugs and return to back to normal levels. You can wait for few more days for the drug to be completely removed from the body. Your bleeding may occur after 3 to 5 days. In some women periods would also resume normally from the next cycle.

Every one reacts differently to a drug. Meanwhile, it is also essential to rule out pregnancy in the subsequent weeks if you experience spotting or nausea or breast changes.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
