Should I Get Another Morning After Pill Due To Diarrhea?
I recently had norovirus, therefore was unable to take my birth control pill for 4 days, in which I got a withdrawal bleed (my period was only 2 weeks before this). I then had unprotected sex and took the morning after pill immediately, but I ve had diarrhoea for the last 2 days. I got diarrhoea 30 minutes after the morning after pill and continued to have it. Should I get another morning after pill?

Hello,
If there was no vomiting within 30 minutes of taking morning after pill,then there is no need to repeat it.
Medicine has been absorbed in the system and hencenothing to worry.
