Hello,

Taking Unwanted 72 soon after unprotected sex gives protection more than 95% against unwanted pregnancy.

After 5 days, you got withdrawal bleeding due to effect of the pill and it is quite natural and common thing. However, your next period may be delayed for 1 to 2 weeks from due date due to hormonal imbalance and mental stress.

It is advisable that you must undergo one home pregnancy test if your period is delayed more than 1 week. Kindly, consult with doctor after that. Good luck.
