Can Pregnancy Still Happen After Taking Unwanted 72 Pills?

I have unprotected sex with my gf on 15th june of this month. Her last menstrual cycle was started on 1st june. She had taken unwanted 72 after one hour of the sex. Again she had taken one more unwanted 72 two after 52 hours of the sex. Now she is feeling pain in her stomach but it is not continuosly. Plz tell me is there any chance of pregnancy bcoz she has taken two pills 52 hours. Also tell me is there any effect on the periods?

unwanted 72 to be taken just within 72 hrs and no requirement of a second pill. if she has taken she has over done it. she should be getting her periods in next 4-5 days. it does have an effect on periods in form of delayed periods and heavy menses. for next 2 cycles. she should be prepared for that. its a known side effect.
