Question

I had sex on Wednesday and then took Postinor 2 on Friday, but I had sex again on Sunday at 4 am. Do I need to take another Postinor? I'm kinda worried about what I should do next.

It is recommended to take another dose of Postinor 2 within 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected intercourse. So in your case, since you had sex on Sunday at 4:00 am, you can take another dose of Postinor 2 as soon as possible to further reduce the risk of pregnancy. Remember to follow the recommended dosage instructions provided with the medication.

Im really worried and confused about ectopic pregnancy and how misoprostol might affect it. If it is ectopic, will I experience bleeding and cramping after taking misoprostol? And if bleeding does start, does that indicate a normal pregnancy, or could it still be ectopic? I'm trying to understand what to look out for.

I'm just wondering if it's safe to go for a normal delivery with my amniotic fluid index measuring between 9 and 10 cm. I'm currently 36 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Should I be concerned, or is it generally okay at this stage?
