Hi, thanks for using HCM..
I understand your concern.. Is your perids regular? 8-18th day is the unsafe period. But you had sex in the safe period, so less chance of pregnancy..Since u have taken unwanted 72 within 72hrs of unprotected intercourse, the chance of pregnancy reduces by 89%. Get a preg test.. If neg, wait for a week and can take progesterone tablet for withdrawal bleeding.. Hope i have answered your question. Good day..
