Good morning
Does a single loose stool from nerves, with abdominal pain, two hours after taking a Yaz pill affect its effectiveness and should I take a second tablet? When I'm not sure what to do, is taking a second pill safe for my health or is it better to avoid it?

No, a single loose stool will not cause a contraceptive pill to be impaired. The problem may be severe gastrointestinal ailments such as severe, severe diarrhea and vomiting. In this case, an additional dose of the drug should be taken (after the symptoms of the disease have subsided). The situation described does not indicate such a necessity; I don't see a risk of Yaz contraceptive disorder. Taking an additional tablet once does not pose a health risk.
