Effects of Postinor 2 in Nigeria – A lot of people reading this article must have heard about Postinor 2 at least one time or the other. This is because it is a contraceptive pill that has become very familiar among youths, especially the ladies. As familiar with Postinor 2 and its use as many people are, they lack the true knowledge of what it actually does, how it should be used and its effects on the body.

What is Postinor 2?

Also popularly referred to as the “Morning After pill”, Postinor 2 is an emergency contraception pill used to prevent unsolicited or expected pregnancies, note the word “emergency”. Procured with 750 micrograms of Levonorgestrel and other ingredients such as Gelatin, Talc, Potato starch and so many on, Postinor 2 is a very effective contraceptive pill.

Can Postinor 2 prevent pregnancy?

It has been proven that Postinor 2 has the ability to prevent about 95% of expected pregnancies if used within 24 hours of unprotected sex and it could prevent 85% if used within 48- 72 hours of unprotected sex. However, it is also said that the effectiveness of the contraceptive pill dwindles as the hours after having unprotected sex increases.

In actuality, Postinor 2 has been confirmed to be more than 80% effective most of the time. Although not clinically proven, many scientists are of the opinion that Postinor 2 stops being effective after about 72 hours of unprotected sex which means that for Postinor 2 to actually work, it must be used within two to three days after having unprotected sex. Any other day after this and the effectiveness of Postinor 2 becomes less guaranteed.

Postinor 2 is meant to be used as an emergency contraception method and not a regular method of contraception. However, because many people who use Postinor 2 do not know this or choose to ignore it, it has been turned into a regular method of contraception. Some ladies even try to use Postinor 2 as an abortion method and they use it even when they have been confirmed to be pregnant.

The use of Postinor 2 as a regular contraception pill can result into many harmful and negative effects on the body unknown to ladies who use it. As effective as Postinor 2 has been proven to be, it however must not be used by everyone.

In short, there are some set of people that must not use Postinor 2 as a contraceptive pill due to the state of their health and other reasons. Because of their ignorance and the inability to take time out to find out about the suitability of this pill with their body before using it, some people continue to use it without knowing that it is causing more harm than good to their health and body as a whole.

The constant and abusive use of Postinor 2 can have so many harmful and negative effects on the body. It can even cause life-long, irreparable damages to the body and your health.

Despite being aware of this fact, many people still go on abusing Postinor 2 in the name of preventing unwanted pregnancies. They never take a minute of their time to actually think of the effects of the Morning After pill on their health. Although it has also been said repeatedly that Postinor 2 is only meant to be used as an emergency preventive pill for pregnancy, so many ladies have turned it into a regular contraceptive pill.

Many even go as far as using it as an abortion pill, using it even after they realize they are pregnant. These and so many others can have side effects on the body and as time goes on, some of these effects caused by Postinor 2 on the body will even become irreversible. Here are some of the effects of Postinor 2 on the body;

1. Vaginal Bleeding: One of the effects of using Postinor 2 in a constant and abusive manner is that it can cause the vagina to bleed nonstop.

While the bleeding may not be more than regular blood drops in some people, it is usually more severe in others depending on the body system. This vaginal bleeding is different from the normal menstrual cycle and sometimes, it messes up the menstrual cycle of a lady causing it to either come earlier or later than it should. When the vaginal bleeding and spotting continues, you must seek for medical attention and remedy immediately.

2. Drug Interaction: Needless to say, there are certain drugs that mustn’t be used together. This is because one of the drugs can either increase the toxicity of the other or decrease it effectiveness. It is the same case with using Postinor 2 with other drugs, it can cause drug interactions which in turn limits the ability of Postinor 2 to do what it was intended for. When a drug interaction takes place, it could either result into pregnancy or a more complicated health condition especially for patients with Asthma, epilepsy, visual impairment and so on. This complication in worst scenarios could even finally result in death.

3. Sexually Transmitted Diseases: The regular and abusive use of Postinor 2 increases the risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases, especially for people who have unprotected sex. While a condom might seem like a major show spoiler, it is safer to have protected sex than unprotected sex that is likely to result in STDs or STIs. Postinor 2 is meant to be used as a preventive measure against pregnancy and not sexually transmitted diseases.

The use of Postinor 2 leaves you vulnerable to sexually transmitted diseases out there and this pose a high risk to your state of health. Therefore, it is more advisable to use a condom rather than Postinor 2 because it can simultaneously protect you from getting diseases and also getting pregnant.

4. Infertility Risk: Because of the lack of knowledge on the right way to use Postinor 2 and the usage of Postinor 2 as a regular method of contraception by some ladies, there is a decrease in the fertility rate of a lady. Often more than not, many ladies use postinor 2 in the wrong way, even using it with other drugs to increase its ‘potency’ and using more than twelve pills in a month, thereby resulting in an irregular monthly period.

When a woman’s monthly period begins to seize or becomes irregular, the chances of being able to get pregnant in future becomes slim. This is because for a woman to have her monthly period, ovulation must take place and when Postinor 2 is constantly used or abused, it obstructs ovulation which in turn obstructs the menstrual cycle thereby reducing the chances of conceiving to slim or zero.

5. Weight Gain: One of the more popular and negative effect of Postinor 2 on the body is that it can cause extreme weight gain. The abusive and regular use of Postinor 2 can see some girls go from being slim to being a BBW.

While the weight gain might be less pronounced in some ladies, it is usually more pronounce in most ladies. Also, the weight gain could either be experienced in some parts of the body, all the body or most times, just around the stomach area. The presence of too much fat in the body also poses a risk to your health because it has been said that when there is too much fat in the body, it can cause many health conditions such as high blood pressure and breathing disorders. This is one of the many reasons why it is not advisable to use Postinor 2 regularly.
