Took Unwanted 72 After 6hours Of Having Sex. What Are The Chances Of Getting Pregnant?

I was virgin and I had my first unprotected sex with my boyfriend yesterday in the morning . I took unwanted 72 after 6 hours of having sex with him. Are there any chance me getting pregnant after taking this pill within 72 hours of the intercourse. I was not sure about the date when my periods will happen but they didn't occur as of yet in this month.

as long as you took the pills within 72 hours of having sex, then the chances of getting pregnant are extremely small and you don't need to worry about it. you can expect to have some bleeding and maybe am irregular period over the next week or two, which is normal after the pill. you should also talk to your doctor about using some sort of reliable birth control since you are now having sex and you shouldn't need to worry about pregnancy. hope this helps, please let me know if you have any more questions.
