What should I do if I have diarrhoea 2 hours after taking the contraceptive pill?
I've never taken birth control pills. Today is my first day of my period. The day before I had diarrhea. I took the first tablet and after 2 hours I got diarrhea. Should I take another tablet from the second blister? And if I take, then what time to take the next day the next day - is it the time of taking the first tablet or the second? And what if again after taking the second time the tablet occurs again diarrhea

Yes, the protection will be maintained from day one of the new packaging.
Hello, if I had intestinal infection a week ago, today I'm starting a placebo, will the protection be as it should be when starting the next pack of pills?

There is no need to take an additional tablet, the protection is maintained. A single (semi)liquid stool is not diarrhea. You have already received the answer here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/84516/kiedy-biegunka-wplywa-na-skutecznosc-tabletek-antykoncepcyjnych
If I have a one-time diarrhoea 2 hours after taking the active red tablet, do I need to take an additional tablet? What if I don't have access to an additional pack and more than 12 hours have passed since taking the pill at the same time?

If diarrhoea occurs (at least 3 stools of excessively loose consistency) within 2 hours of taking the contraceptive pill, it is recommended to take another tablet from the blister (or tablet from an additional blister). As a fixed hour, take the time of taking the first tablet. In the event that diarrhea occurs once again, that is, another at least 3 stools with an excessively loose consistency within 3-4 hours from the moment of taking another tablet, it is recommended to use another contraceptive pill. With prolonged persistence of diarrhea (several days), it is recommended to use an additional method of contraception due to, for example, irritation of the intestinal mucosa. This is the general procedure recommended for most oral contraceptives. If you have additional questions, please provide the name of the preparation you started using.
