Overview Leedoz 72 Tablet

Emergency contraceptive Postinor-2 (72-hour pill) is a medication women use to prevent pregnancy after unprotected intercourse or contraceptive mishap. Not intended for regular contraception, it's a single-dose tablet taken within 72 hours (3 days) of the event, regardless of food intake. Its effectiveness relies on preventing or delaying ovulation; prompt use is crucial. Generally well-tolerated, potential side effects—such as nausea, menstrual irregularities, abdominal discomfort, fatigue, and headache—are typically mild and short-lived (1-2 days). Persistent or concerning symptoms require immediate medical attention. Before use, confirm you aren't pregnant, haven't missed a period (or it's not delayed by more than 7 days), and that it's been less than 72 hours since unprotected sex or contraceptive failure. If any of these apply, seek medical advice immediately.
