Very rare case when such contraceptive fails. Normally there is no need to repeat so soon. After taking high hormonal emergency pill like unwanted 72 one gets withdrawal bleeding 5 to 10 days later, and then new cycle starts.

Emergency contraceptive pills like unwanted 72 contain female hormones which delay the release of egg or prevent movement of sperm towards the egg. This prevents fertilization and hence pregnancy. Unwanted 72 does not have any effect on a fertilized egg and hence does not cause abortion.
