Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
Unwanted 72 is an emergency contraceptive used for prevention of pregnancy after unprotected sex.It acts by postponing ovulation...

She might get scanty bleeding after 8 days of taking pills.. which indicates withdrawal of drug fom body.
Her menstruation is also postponed by 8-10 days... after the pills.

In short she is safe .. the drug is taken in time .. so protection is guarenteed.
Unwanted 72 is good option for emmergency contraception only. It should not be used frequenly.It's better to use cyclical hormone pills or IUD for continuous need.
Thanks.
