Brief Answer:
DETAILS ARE GIVEN BELOW.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for additional information.

According to her last menstrual period date, you did unprotected sex close to her ovulation or fertile day. However, it is quite IMPOSSIBLE to get positive pregnancy test result on the day of sexual intercourse. It is DOUBTFUL test.

As she has taken unwanted 72 pill within first 24 hrs of unprotected sex, then she will get more than 95% protection against unwanted pregnancy.

A withdrawal bleeding will appear within 5-7 days and next period may be delayed for 1-2 weeks due to hormonal imbalance and mental stress.

I suggest her to wait for next coming period and undergo one BLOOD test for beta-hCG for confirmation of pregnancy. NO intervention can be made before her next missed period and confirmed pregnancy.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and take care yourself.

Regards,
Dr Soumen
