Question : Me and my gf had unprotected sex on 31st july.I did not ejaculate.But we were worried about the prejaculation fluid so she took Unwanted 72 within 46 hours.After 3 weeks she hot her periods.It was heavy.She did a home pregnancy test and the result came out negative.Now after almost 2 months she has not got her perods this month yet.She is experiencing little upper back pains recently.
Are there any chances of pregnancy?!Are those back pains just some sleep disorders?!

Brief Answer:
The chances of pregnancy are almost nil.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
The period maybe delayed due to side effect of I-pill,due to hormonal imbalance ( contains high doses of hormone in it).
As her pregnancy test is negative,she should wait and watch for her menses.
Back pain can be due to starting of your menses or it can be due to wrong posture.
Hope found useful, feel free to discuss more information.
Good luck.
