Good morning, if at 9 p.m. I took a contraceptive pill, the second day a new blister and at 1:30 a.m. there was diarrhea, but at 2 o'clock it was 3 semi-liquid stools and I took a spare pill at 2:30 a.m., but before 8 a.m. it was exactly 7:50 a.m. I passed one semi-liquid stool, should I take another pill? I know that I have to protect myself for the next 7 days. But I'm worried because 3 days earlier I had intercourse. Nothing else happened.

I don't think there is a need to take another contraceptive pill. A lot of time passed from the moment you took the additional dose of the drug to the morning hour and you did not observe any intestinal complaints afterwards. It can be assumed that the drug has been absorbed. Since you have followed the recommendations, I do not see the need for additional protection during intercourse next week. There is also no reason to worry about reducing the effectiveness of the pills.
In case of any doubts, I encourage you to use the teleconsultation with a gynaecologist - the service is available on our website in the e-visit tab:
