Had Unprotected Sex. Taken Plan B. How Far Does It Work?

Hi, I had unprotected sex with my partner and we weren't sure if he came inside me so I took the plan b one step pill but as I was taking it, it dissolved in my mouth and drank water to wash it down my throat but I'm scared to know that it didn't work. Will it still work if it dissolved in my tongue? Will the chances of the pill not working increase?

Hi,
If tablet dissolved in the mouth and if you have swallowed all medicine into your stomach with water then medicine is goin to work.
If you have thrown out this liquid out side then its effectiveness is doubtful.
Ok and take care.
