Dr. John Berryman answered

Contraception ?'s: Postinor 2 can be repeated, but if ovulation occurred on or near the two instances of potential pregnancy, the "protection" is not 100%. If your period is delayed, wait until a week after it is due, and obtain a serum HCG test to be certain about pregnancy.
