Hi,

Unwanted-72 is up to 95% effective in preventing pregnancy. If taken within 72 hours following an unprotected sex, Unwanted-72 is about 95% effective in preventing an unwanted pregnancy, the sooner it is taken more will be its effectiveness. It is quite safe, however it may cause irregular bleeding or delayed menses.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
