Brief Answer:
You are protected, don't worry about pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

The morning after pill is highly effective when taken properly. It can reduce pregnancy risk up to 95% when taken within 24 hours.
You took it within 72 hours after intercourse ( exactly as soon as 24 hours after intercourse) so you are protected and I can reassure you that you will not be pregnant.
I think you should not worry about getting pregnant.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
