Hello dear
Understand your concern
Temporary disruption of menstrual cycle is common after taking unwanted 72 as it cause hormonal imbalance.
Unwanted 72 cause delay in period due to high progesterone that prolong the second phase of cycle. Some time spotting can be occur.
I advice you to wait for period to come for 7-10 days. If period will delay by the 10-12 days then go for pregnancy test to rule out the pregnancy.
So do not worry, your period will come.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
