Hi Doctor I had unprotected sex with my girlfriend just on the verge of her periods(It was 5th day of her periods, or the periods ended, her cycle is normally 28 days). After that, she took Postpone 72 and then again had unprotected sex on next day, after almost 24 hours. Now, it has been almost 10 days since she took the pill but still did not get Withdrawal Bleeding.

The best time to take the Postpone 72 is the earliest possible after sexual intercourse. ...
