Hi,

Normal period date is 4th September. You had sex on 3rd and 4th October. You did sex in completely safe period of cycle. During this time there is no release of ovum so no fertilization and chance of pregnancy. Unwanted 72 was taken on next day. It can cause hormonal imbalance as it contains high progesterone.

It can cause delay in period by 1 to 3 week. I would suggest to wait for next 4 to 5 days for period. If period will not come then consult a gynecologist for examination. Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water, do regular exercise.

Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.

Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
