Question: hello Sir,
i am male, 24 yr old. i had unprotected sex with friend on 19th Dec. 2015, she is 20 yr old. i didn't insert my organ in her vagina. she had undergarment (nikar), but i had naked. then also, as a precaution she consumed one Unwanted 72 pill within 42 hrs. after that, again on 26th Dec., I had unprotected sex with her.this time also i didn't insert my organ in her vagina. but, this time i had underwear and cotton half pant and she had undergarment (nikar). so, respected sir, shall she consume a Unwanted 72 pill again? or no need to consume it? because repeated consumption of unwanted 72 pill may lead to side effects. Both of us want to be a safe and no pregnancy. Sir, please suggest, shall she take a pill again? and if she should take a pill. then, what will the related side effects of taking a unwanted 72 pill twice in a same week?

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
The main indication of using unwanted pill is an unprotected sexual intercourse. From the information provided by you above, you have mentioned that there was no penetration by you, in such case there is no indication or need to take unwanted pill72 as there is nil chance of depositing sperm inside her. Besides, an unnecessary use of pill may lead to its side effects like heavy bleeding, disturbed periods, hormonal imbalance, etc.
Pregnancy can be avoid by having various contraceptive methods, you can seek help of a gynaecologist for it.
There is no need for taking pill again.
