Hi Me and my husband had a mishap with a condom and I had to get the plan b one step pill. I have a problem with lactose (which it contains) but had no choice. I used the pill within an hour of the incident and the next few days I had diarrhea. Will the pill still work effectively or is there a lower chance of it not working?
Hello, Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. If you did not develop the diarrhea within two hours of consuming the emergency contraceptive pill, there is no worry since the pill is absorbed by then and has started working effectively. The efficacy provided by the emergency contraceptive pill ranges from about 98-85 percent depending on the time-lapse after the unprotected intercourse. You can expect with Chat Doctor.  Hope this helps.
