Brief Answer:
Bleeding is unpredictable after unwanted 72.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us about it.
I can understand your concern here.
Bleeding is unpredictable after taking emergency pill due to hormonal imbalance.
It can cause menstrual irregularities for 1-3 months.
As she had I-pill with in 72 hrs. it is 97% effective and chances of pregnancy are less.
As now it is already 5 days go you can not give her anything else to prevent pregnancy now.
If she is not bleeding after 5 days of taking I - pill that does not mean she is pregnant.
Wait for her next period.
Hope it is useful,feel free to ask more.
Good luck.
Regards
