Unprotected Sex And Took Unwanted 72. Vaginal Bleeding And Not Normal. Pregnancy?

i had unprotected sex with my girlfriend. She later in the evening took unwanted 72 pill
and now her periods is not coming as by the date
she had a small amount of vaginal bleeding when she was expecting her periods
but she said it was not as natural as it use to be
i know pills delay periods, but for how many days?
and is all this because of pill, or is she going to be pregnant?

Hello
Unwanted 72 will cause irregular cycles for a few weeks. Her menses wont come on time as before.She will have new dates for her menses after they are stabilised. If she did bleed after taking the pill,chances of pregnancy are less.But im sure you know nothing is foolproof. I suggest she waits for the next period,and of its delayed then take a test.

OBGYN Dr. Deepti Goyal's  Response
Hi thanks for asking on HCM.

This may be due to delay of periods due to pill or due to pregnancy. Emergency contraceptive pill can delay the periods by a week or so.To rule out pregnancy,you can do either home pregnancy test or blood test(serum beta HCG) as home pregnancy test can be negative in very early pregnancy.

Good Luck
Hope this information is helpful and informative.
