If I ate porridge that contained psyllium and psyllium 6 hours before the contraceptive pill, will the contraceptive effectiveness decrease?

If I ate oatmeal that contained psyllium and plantain 6 hours before the contraceptive pill, will it significantly reduce the effectiveness of the contraception?
This was the composition of the porridge: 51% apples 24% bananas 18% Strawberries 3% Oat Groats 3% Oatmeal 0.5% psyllium seeds 0.5% plantain seeds

No, eating porridge in the morning (even with added high-fibre ingredients) 6 hours before taking the contraceptive pill will not affect its absorption and effectiveness.

On our website, you can check the availability of medicines and make a reservation at the pharmacy.
