I am 20 years old female. I had an unprotected intercourse and took unwanted 72 within 24 hours. Within a week I again had an unprotected sex and taken unwanted 72. Is there any side-effects of taking this contraceptive pill twice within a week?

It will cause hormonal imbalance and irregular cycle along with other side effects. Also it's an emergency contraceptive and not a regular one so better use a condom or start with the OC pills that's taken daily. Consult a doctor for more details.
