I didn't manage to swallow a contraceptive pill right away, will the contraceptive protection be maintained?

I failed to swallow the contraceptive pill the first time, only after swallowing it the second time. Will this somehow affect the effectiveness of contraception? Atywia Daily Could it dissolve in the mouth and thus will not work?

To @Ania:
In the described scenario, contraceptive protection has been maintained and you have no reason to worry.

If such a situation happened once again, that I hold a pill in my mouth for a while and swallow it, should I take an additional pill because I held the previous one in my mouth and didn't swallow it right away?

No vomiting or diarrhoea occurred

I took this pill at the same time, i.e. at 7:30 p.m., as I always take pills. She could dissolve a little in her mouth because I held her in my mouth to drink it again. Is it okay despite the fact that it could have dissolved slightly, but I swallowed it?

To @Ania:

If the contraceptive pill sticks to the roof of your mouth and requires an extra sip of water to swallow it, it should not reduce the effectiveness of contraception, provided you follow the same regimen (i.e. you take it within an hour of the usual time of taking it).
There was also no vomiting or diarrhoea that could cause the excretion of the medicine.

Same-day sexual intercourse should not affect the effectiveness of contraception, as long as the pill is taken correctly.

I had the same situation yesterday. I wanted to swallow the pill, but it stuck to my palate. I tried to swallow it, it rubbed against the palate. Then I took another sip of water and only then swallowed it. On that day I had intercourse, could this situation reduce the effectiveness?

To my knowledge, the described situation could not affect the effectiveness of contraception and weaken its effects. It is also not possible for the tablet to dissolve in the mouth.
