Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I want to know about the Unwanted-72 pill. Does it have any side effects? I had unprotected sex with my fiance for the first time and I am confused about what to do. I want to know if this pill is safe.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Unwanted 72 contains hormone in high load which helps to prevent pregnancy. You need to take this pill as early as possible and preferably within 72 hours of unprotected sex. Yes, there are some side effects which are temporary. It can cause spotting, breakthrough bleeding, nausea, breast pain, and a delayed next cycle. But, there is no long-standing effect on your health or fertility if you take this pill once.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
