A member asked:

I took postinor yesterday night after sex .. i just had another raw sex and he did not use withdrawal method it's less than 24hrs should i take another drugs?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Postin or is effective for 24-72 hrs after unprotected sex. It stops ovulation . I do not think that you need another dosage for this second unprotected sex. If you won’t mind, I want to give you a bit of advice. Please use regular contraception if frequent sex acts without wanting pregnancy as these do not prevent sexually transmitted diseases. Best of luck.
