Good morning, I use contraception and I have some doubts whether the effectiveness has been maintained, I take the pill (limetic) every day at 9.50. whereas the day before yesterday from about 5 am I vomited several times, then I took the pill with an hour delay and again I vomited about 12 hours after taking the pill, was I protected against pregnancy during this time?

Yes, you are protected. Contraception has been preserved. I understand that you took the pill around 10.50 in the morning and then you did not vomit until the evening (you write about 12 hours). Previous vomiting (around 5 am) was not relevant for the tablet's effect. A swallowed tablet needs about 3-4 hours to absorb and act. If vomiting occurred immediately after taking the tablet, or within 4 hours - then an additional one should be used.
