Hello,

Postinor is often used to prevent pregnancy and a common side effect of it is bleeding and your periods may not be on your due date as you would expect.
In this case, it is still best to have a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy (you may have the test 2-3 days after your due date).

If you are not pregnant then you should just relax, there may be some irregular bleeding with this pill and this is normal. It should start to get better soon.
If you continue to have irregular bleeding even a month after taking the pill then you will need to see your doctor.

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

Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj,
