Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
Yes Regular use of emergency pill like Unwanted-72 could affect future pregnancy chances. Taking emergency pill can affect your menstrual cycles . This is due to high dose of levogestrol hormone contained in emergency pill. Normally this doesn't happens with one or two doses.
One should use emergency contraceptive pill just in case of emergency. Use condom or regular contraceptive pill as method of conception in future. Taking more emergency contraceptive pills can cause problems like irregular periods, ovarian hyper-stimulation syndrome & even infertility.

If problem persists consult a gynaecologist
Hope this information helps
