Brief Answer:
Not due to pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
First thing, Unwanted 72 gives more than 85% protection against unwanted pregnancy if it is taken within 24 to 48 hrs of unprotected sex. Here, chance of pregnancy is quite less with taking of unwanted 72 pill after 24 hours.
Having intercourse on third day of the periods also decreases the chances of pregnancy as it is very less fertile tine of the cycle.
The feeling of being hungry is not due to pregnancy. Please do not worry.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
