A member asked:
Should i take another contraceptive pill if i had diarrhoea 3 hours after taking my usual pill? am i still protected from intercourse in the last day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No and yes: The diarrhea should have no effect on the absorption of your pill, so your protection will also not be affected.
