On the last day of taking the pills, I took 2 contraceptive pills because I had diarrhea. Then I took a week break from weaning and I'm starting another pack again. I had sex during withdrawal bleeding and my partner didn't end up inside. Was I protected? Can I be pregnant? How do I take pills now? Normally or take 2 packs without interruption? I take Aidee 21+7 tablets. Thank you for your reply.

To @alekso:
Yes, you were protected, but it is worth remembering that even if you use contraception, you can never 100% exclude the possibility of getting pregnant.
Continue to use the tablets according to the scheme.
The pregnancy test can be performed about 10 days after intercourse, e.g.:
So during the break between blisters I was 100% protected? Today I took 1 tablet from a new blister and I still have to continue 21 + 7. To be sure, I want to do a pregnancy test. When is the best time to do it?

In this case, the risk of pregnancy is very small. If you took an extra contraceptive pill in response to diarrhoea and you want to continue taking the pills from the next pack, the contraceptive protection should be maintained.
If you have taken the tablets as recommended by the manufacturer and you have not missed any dose, there is no need to take two packs without interruption. Please continue taking the tablets according to the usual schedule.
