Good morning
I come with a question, namely I took an antibiotic for 6 days, during this treatment I had a few times mild diarrhea, during these 6 days I took placebo pills because this happened to my taking hormonal contraception (I take Vibin Mini). I would like to ask how this will affect the effectiveness of the pills? How many days should I additionally protect myself against pregnancy. I would like to add that he has been taking the pills for a year at the same time.

Since you took the antibiotic during the placebo pills, i.e. when hormones are not supplied to the body anyway, diarrhoea did not affect the effectiveness of the therapy.
Since the antibiotic can affect the effect of the active pill for up to 7 days after discontinuation, you should use additional contraception in the form of a condom prophylactically for the first 7 days of taking the pink (active) pills from the new blister. From the 8th tablet, the protection will be fully preserved.
