Could Diarrhea With Side Effects After Unprotected Intercourse Be Signs Of Pregnancy?
I took the morning after pill about an hour after the accident. We had sex for the second time that night and the condom slipped and he came inside of me. There was about an hour window between ejaculations. I am having side effects, diarrhea. Should I be worried about pregnancy?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Diarrhea after the intercourse is not sign of pregnancy.
It is a side effect of the morning after pill.
Pill contain high progesterone ant it relax the smooth muscle of intestine and produce the gastrointestinal side effects.
But remember, morning after pill is not 100 % effective in preventing the pregnancy.
It has 5-10 % failure rate.
Pill also cause delayed in the period by 10-12 days.
If period will delay by the 14 days then go for pregnancy test and or blood HCG to confirm the pregnancy.
Hope this may help you
