Hello dear
I understand your concern
If unwanted 72 was taken with in 24 hours then it is 95% effective in preventing pregnancy.
If it was taken after 24 hours then then it is upto 85% effective.
But vomiting may decrease effectiveness of Unwanted 72.

Pill contain high progesterone and cause delayed in period by 1-2 weeks.
If period will delay by more then 2 week then go for urine pregnancy test and or blood HCG test after consulting gynecologist to confirm pregnancy.
Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.
Hope this may help you
