Today, 11.08, I was supposed to take out the disc after 3 weeks and take a 7-day break, but I want to avoid a period this month and I put in a new disc without taking out the old one by mistake. I had two discs for 1.5 hours, as I realized during sex I took out both of them and applied the new one (I think the new one was transparent and the old one was yellowed), will everything be okay or use an additional anti? Unfortunately, one sex took place without additional protection.

To @Nika:
Everything indicates that you have done the right thing.
A 3-week-old disc may change its color to brown/cream/yellow.
The new disc is transparent.
According to the manufacturer: "flexible, transparent, colourless or almost colourless (...)"
And do you think I did the right thing by leaving the transparent one (I think new) and taking the old yellowed one out? I'm very afraid of it, but I don't have any more albums at the moment

Using two discs at the same time for such a short time does not affect the effectiveness of contraception in any way. You can continue to use the new disc and the protection is maintained. The intercourse was secured properly.
If, on the other hand, you are not sure which disc is new, it is best to throw away both systems and apply a new one to make sure it will be effective for the next 3 weeks.
I'm attaching a link to a helpful post:
