Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking Unwanted-72?
Hi, My wife and me had unprotected sex last week and she took a pill of unwanted 72 within 24 hours. This week also we had unprotected sex by mistake and she took another pill of unwanted 72. Her period date was 20th of every month but she did not get her periods as if now. Is this normal or it has a consequence. Please help us in this situation. Regards

Hi I think it can be a side effect of frequent intake of emergency pill. But do a urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy first. If negative, you can wait for one more week and repeat the test. If negative, she can take some medicines like meprate or deviry for inducing periods. Don't take emergency pill frequently as it can have side effects on ovarian function. Use some regular contraceptive pill. Hope it helps.
