Brief Answer:
Yes you can use postpone 72.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
31st is less fertile period of your cycle. By using the condoms the chances of conception will be less than 5%. But you can be doubly sure by taking postpone 72 tablet after having sex. It is best to take it within 24 hours and it can cause mild periods irregularity and intermittent bleeding as a side effect.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
