Hello,
Usually, unwanted 72 pill if taken within 72 hour of unprotected intercourse, then chance of pregnancy is very less. This pill can be 98 to 99% effective in preventing pregnancy.
So, your chance of getting pregnant is very less if you have taken pill within 72 hour of unprotected intercourse. If your next period is delayed, then test with urine HCG card test.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
