Will I Get Pregnant Inspite Of Using Condom And Taking Unwanted 72?
i didn't have intercourse with my boyfriend but had dry sex with him on the 5, 6th and 7th day of my period, he was wearing condom and i consumed unwanted 72 in 8 hours of doing it, i still am late on my period, is there any chance i may be pregnant?

Hallow Dear,
Your boyfriend had used condom consistently during all the intercourses. Moreover, you have taken Unwanted 72 pill within 8 hours of the sexual intercourse. These pills are effective emergency contraceptive pills if taken within 72 hours of the unprotected sex. So the possibilities of pregnancy seem to be very meagre.
These post coital emergency contraceptive pills have some after effects:
1. Some amount of vaginal bleeding is noticed few days after consumption of these pills. It lasts just for a couple of days and does not require any medical attention.
2. The period following the pills is delayed by few days to a week or so. Therefore your periods are delayed. Wait patiently for the periods to appear.
If even after a week of the missed period you do not get menses, then perform pregnancy test on the overnight early morning first urine sample; earlier the test may report false negative results.
I hope this resolves your dilemma.
