Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting us again about your wife health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
Unwanted 72 is emergency pill which contains high doses of hormone in it,so it may cause menstrual irregularities.
So there is no need to worry about it.
Her period may be irregular for 3-4 months than they become regular.
Hope found useful, feel free to ask more information.
Good luck.
Regards
