Hello,

You did unprotected sex on SAFE time (just after period) and took Unwanted 72 within first 1 hr, which will give more than 95% protection against unwanted pregnancy. Your chance of pregnancy is EXTREMELY LOW or RARE.

You will get a withdrawal bleeding within 5-7 days due to effect of the pill. It is quite NORMAL and natural phenomena.

Your next period may be delayed for 1-2 weeks due to hormonal imbalance and mental stress. However, I suggest to undergo one home pregnancy test if your period is delayed more than 1 week. Early pregnancy test is Invalid.

Good luck and practice safe sex.
