Hi Rajeev,
What you have heard is wrong.
One does not get a period within 2 to 3 hours of taking unwanted 72. She will get her periods regularly on the date when she gets it every month. It may even be delayed by a few days.
There is no need to worry as she has taken the pill and she will not conceive.
Hope this helps.
