Unwanted 72 pill
My wife's period date is on the 20th. I had sex with my wife on the 8th, and about an hour after having sex, I gave my wife the Unwanted 72 pill. However, since then, my wife has been experiencing a lot of body pain and severe weakness all over her body. Why is this happening, how long will this pain last, and will my wife's next period be on time?"..

Hi these pills do cause symptoms like these but extreme weakness should be evaluated and the cycles generally are irregular for 1 to 2 months.

It is unpredictable when your wife is going to get her periods
Emergency are known to delay periods
They are known to cause irregular bleeding
And they have a high failure rate
Body pain and weakness could be because of deficiency
She needs investigations to find out the reason

Moderate abdominal pain, cramps , withdrawal bleeding are common side effects of unwanted pill. See if she has her withdrawal bleeding within 1 week.After that she will recover from most of her symptoms.If her symptoms are persistent then you may need to consult a doctor.
Next Steps
Take over the counter analgesic to cope with pain.

Yes these pills can cause the symptoms. But severe bodyache that is persistent should be checked out. She can get withdrawal bleed after 1 week.
Periods maybe irregular for 2-3 months due to high dose of hormones.

Unwanted 72 may not be responsible for body pain, reason might be something else
It is known that emergency contraceptives are harmones in high dosages and alter the menstrual cycle. Connect online for safe contraception advise and safty.
