I had sex with my girlfriend today, January 11, and the condom broke. She took Unwanted 72 before, like three days ago on January 7, after we had unprotected sex. Can she take the pill again or is that too much for one week? Really concerned about what we should do.

Using Unwanted 72 twice in a week is not recommended, as it contains a high dose of hormones, which can disrupt your girlfriend's menstrual cycle and cause side effects like nausea, irregular bleeding, or fatigue. It's best to consult a healthcare provider for guidance on emergency contraception and explore long-term contraceptive options for better safety and effectiveness.

I'm a bit worried because I got my last period on July 23rd, but I still haven't gotten it again. I took a urine test, but it came back negative. I've started taking Cyclenorm E and P, 6 tablets per day for the past 2 days. How long does it usually take for periods to start after this?

your period may occur within 3-7 days. This can vary depending on your individual response to the medication. However, if your periods do not start within this time frame or if you experience any side effects, it is important to consult with your doctor.
