Usually no need

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Greetings
Usually no need of taking second pill.But these pills will protect 95% of pregnancy only.Again chances depends on the day of sex from first day of periods.I mean if it happens during ovulation there is 3 to 5 % chances if pregnancy.
Plan b pills are high dose hormones 50times more potent than normal pill.
Feel free to ask your doubt with more details
