When Does Withdrawal Bleeding Begin After Taking Postpone 72?

I had sex with my gf on 24th July and the condom broke. I ejaculated inside her. She immediately took Postpone 72 within 1.5 hours. Her last period began on 2nd July and the next expected day is 30th July. I m worried. Please help us. When will she get her withdrawal bleeding? When will she get her next periods? When to take the pregnancy test?

Hello,

The withdrawal bleeding after Postpone 72 indicate effect of hormone over the uterine epithelium via induction of hormone changes.

This bleeding is normal and takes around 1 uterine cycle to get back to normal rhythm involving natural estrogen, progesterone and LH

Kindly opt for another method of contraception till next menses cycle.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.
