If I took an extra contraceptive pill because I don't remember if I took the drug at a fixed time - will the protection be preserved?

Is the effectiveness of the contraceptive pill preserved? I completely do not remember if I took the contraceptive pill, so a few hours later I took another one just in case. In this case, is the effectiveness of the drug preserved?

To @Ania:
Yes, bleeding can be postponed for a few days. If no bleeding occurs, a follow-up pregnancy test may be performed before starting the next blister.

Here you can compare the prices of pregnancy tests in online pharmacies and order for home delivery or pick-up at the pharmacy:

Good morning. This month I took two Vibin pills in one day. Because I was afraid that the tablet was not absorbed, I took an additional tablet from the spare blister an hour later. Today I'm on day 3 of the placebo pill where the bleeding always started but didn't show up. Is it possible that it will appear tomorrow?

Subsequent tablets should be used as before, even if it means taking two tablets on the same day - that is, now you should continue to take the tablets in the normal mode every evening, also today.

In that case, I have one more question. If I actually took 1 tablet in the evening before bedtime, while 2 tablets in the morning, then the next tablet from the blister to take on the same day or the next day?

Yes, protection is preserved. Even if I took your two pills on the same day, this does not reduce the effectiveness of contraception and there is no reason to worry. If you have taken two tablets on the same day, you may experience bleeding or midcyclic spotting, then therapy should be continued despite the observed bleeding. If the pill was indeed missed, taking a spare pill after a few hours ensured the continuation of contraceptive protection.
