hiii,
Welcome to health care magic.
As she took unwanted 72 within 36 hrs of unprotected sex, her period may be delayed due to effect of ECP.
So she has to wait at least 7 days from missed date. After that if she not get her period..do a pregnancy test.
Check the result. If positive,consult with gynecologist.
All the best.
