A member asked:
I had unprotected sex, took a plan b, but then two hours later had diarrhea. do i need to be concerned and re take the pill or am i still safe to get all the effects & not get pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diarrhea 2 hours later does not interfere with the absorption of the pill in the upper digestive tract. That stool represents material on the lower colon, not up inside the small intestine where the pill was absorbed in the first 2 hours.
