Taken Unwanted 72 After Intercourse, Delayed Periods, Pregnancy Test Negative. Does Bleeding Stops After Taking Unwanted 72?

Is there any possibility that my period would be fully stopped after taking Unwanted 72 tablet for twice in a week? In February, 2012, I had taken Unwanted 72 for twice in a week, after having intercourse (continuous 3 days + continuous another 3 days). I had taken the tablets on 16th February, 2012 (45 minutes late of 72 hours, as I was late from office) and 22nd February, 2012 (within 72 hours), how far I can remember the dates. February last week, on 28th, I had my period, exactly in the time, and it was a 4-days cycle, 1 day less than my normal cycle. On March 02, 2012, it was completed. After that, as per the normal cycle, I should have my next period on March 28, 2012. But, I m not having my period till date (April 02, 2012). I have already gone for Urine Test for Pregnancy on 29th and 31st March, 2012, but, it gave negative results both the time. I m in tension . What may be the probable reason of not having my period in time? What to do now? I m unmarried, and can t share this with my family. Kindly help me, and suggest to take the right path.

dear dyuti, welcome to hcm.
I can understand the problem ur facing.
First of all Unwanted 72 should be taken within a maximum of 72 hrs after an unprotected sexual intercourse. It is my humble request to you to not make it a habit of taking it very often since these are hormones which may cause changes in your body and may lead to complications in some.
if the Urine Pregnancy test gives a negative result, kindly do the test under the supervision of a medically trained professional for the interpretation of the test.
if it still remains negative, its my sincere suggestion to consult the nearest Gynecologist for an expert opinion along with a sonograpical report.
Please do not panic. Prefet "barrier methods" than the hormonal contraceptives.
thank you:-)
