How do Levomine tablets work that they remain effective even during a 7-day break?

1) How do Levomine tablets work even during a 7-day break? Birth control pills, such as Levomine, work by providing the body with hormones (usually estrogens and progestins) that affect a woman's natural hormonal cycle. These hormones inhibit ovulation (the release of an egg from the ovary), make cervical mucus thicker, making sperm more difficult for it to survive, and alter the lining of the uterus, making it difficult to implant a fertilized egg. If the contraceptive pills have been taken correctly for 21 days (i.e. at the same time each day), the effectiveness of contraception is still maintained during the 7-day break. When used correctly, the woman's body is constantly supplied with the right doses of hormones that prevent ovulation and maintain continuous protection against pregnancy. 2) If the tablets were taken correctly for 21 days, the effectiveness is maintained (even if vomiting / diarrhea was but after 4 hours), but why? In the case of vomiting or diarrhoea, if they occur more than 4 hours after taking the tablet, there is no longer a risk that the body has not had time to fully absorb the active ingredients from the tablet, therefore the effect of Levomine tablets is not affected. 3) Do vomiting, diarrhoea, alcohol or antibiotics during a 7-day break affect the effectiveness of Levomine tablets? Vomiting and diarrhea during a 7-day break will not affect the effectiveness of contraception, as I have already explained above. As for alcohol, the same alcohol consumption does not affect the effectiveness of hormonal contraception. However, under the influence of relaxation after alcohol, many women forget to take the tablet. Some of the antibiotics can affect the effectiveness of Levomine tablets.
