Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,
Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:
1) According to your period date, you did mostly safe sex (if previous cycle was quite regular) on 31st March and additionally, took Unwanted 72 pill after 12 hrs. In this case, chance of pregnancy is NIL or RARE.
2) Unwanted 72 gives more than 95% protection against unwanted pregnancy if taken within 24 hrs of sex.
3) However, your period may be delayed for 1-2 weeks from expected date due to hormonal imbalance. Do one pregnancy test if you don't get your period after 7 days waiting. It will help to clear doubt.
Hope, it helps for your information. Wish your good health. Practice safe sex.
