Hi,

Welcome to Health Care Magic,

I am Dr.Naveed Ullah khan,

I have read your question in detail and will try to help you in the best way possible.

Unwanted 72 contains levonorgestrel which works like progesterone. Progesterone is a hormone predominantly present during 2nd half of your menstrual cycle and pregnancy. So taking this drug can definitly cause menstrual problems. If u experience any heavy bleeding then i strongly suggest to go to a hospital. Also i want you to do a uring HCG test after 2 weeks just to make sure there is no pregnancy.


I hope this answered all your queries, if you have more queries,I will be happy to answer.

Wish you the best of health.

Regards.
