hello, i also have a question about Postinor. I would like to say first that i had an abortion and after three weeks, i had unprotected sex with my husband - actually, the condom broke - before getting my first period. As well, i am on rifampicin and other tablets for TB. After i took the first postinor tablet, i saw that there might be a problem - although i do not know what problem the combination postinor+rifampicin can cause. Anyways, I took the first tablet of postinor after 12 hours from having intercourse but i missed the second tablet, which i took after 24 hours. I panicked, and i bought 2 other postinor pills. I took the first pill from the second box one hour after i took the second pill from the first box. the second pill from the second bok i took after 12 hours - all these happened within 48 hours from the intercourse. Thus, i would like to know what is the probability of being preganant. as well, i would like to mention that i do not know whether i was ovulating or not as i did not get my period back after the abortion. As well, can you recommend me some contraceptive methods with the exception of condoms - my husband does not like them - and pills. I used to take regular contraceptive pills, but the TB treatment mixed up my period quite badly - i started to have periods once in two weeks. Please advise and thank you very much.
Hi, Postinor is a hormonal pill used as an emergency contraception. If taken under 24 hours of unprotected sex then it is 95% potent. If it is taken under 25-48 hours of unprotected sex then it is said to be 85% effective. Rifampicin is an antibiotic used in TB treatment. This Chat Doctor.  Hence, you are not fully protected. You can use female condoms since your husband does not want to use barrier methods. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
