Hello,
Welcome to HCM
There is nothing to worry if your daughter swallowed a single birth control pill. There would be hardly any untoward effect.
However , be careful in the future. Children like to mouth things or sometimes even imitate adults by taking tablets etc.
So please keep all medicines out of reach of children.
Take Care
