Thank you for query.The given dates are too old is suppose.Pregnancy depends on timing of ovulation and intercourse.safe period for intercourse is before 9th day and after 21st of menstrual cycle if regular cycles.if you had intercourse in this you are safe. Precum also may have sperms.check with your missed dates.check with OTC pregnancy kits after 7 days of missed date.Unwanted 72 if taken correct dosage and timings will help in preventing pregnancy but it should not be used as a regular contraceptive.Use other regular pills.Consult doctor for further management.Dr Bharatesh
