I am a 39 year old women. I had unproductive sex on 16 june and I ate unwanted 72 on that day. Yesterday night I had unprotected sex again but now I am worried can I eat the pill again or not. Please help me. This was the first time I had birth control pill in my lifetime. I am aiming to have my periods in nearly 5/6 days. As per my estimation.

Don't use pills regular. Use them occasionally.

No need to take second dose. After taking the high hormonal emergency pill like unwanted 72 one gets withdrawal bleeding 5 to 10 days later, and then a new cycle starts. If this does not happen as well as period is missed then to do pregnancy test.
