Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
Unwanted 72 is an emmergency contraceptive&it prevents pregnancy when taken within 72 hours of sex. Your friend had it in 1 hour
45 minutes after sex... on top of that it was protected sex as per you.So there is no chance of pregnancy with the sex discussed in the query..
Your concern is about her period.. Unwanted 72 tends to delay next period by 8-10 days.( . because of the hormonal imbalance it causes.)So don't worry she would get period 8-10 days late than expected.
Thanks.
