On combined bc. had sex on the first day of pack. protected with condom and took pill on time. been consistent since and had no sex after that. few days into third week, i have had diarrhea but still taking the pills. chances of pregnancy?

The effectiveness of the oral contraceptives should not be affected by the diarrhea. Your body absorbs the active ingredients in the contraceptives fairly quickly. It sounds as though you should be fairly well protected against pregnancy. Stay safe!
