Any bowel movement that occurs after 4 hours after taking the tablet will not affect its effectiveness. The active substance has already absorbed into the bloodstream and bowel movements - that is, the work of the digestive system will no longer matter.

If more than 3-4 hours have passed since taking the tablet - protection will be preserved, because then the tablet has already managed to absorb.

No, if the stool has a normal consistency, you are not accompanied by abdominal pain or fever - then protection is preserved. The effectiveness of the pills may be reduced if diarrhea understood as more than 3 watery bowel movements occurs within 3-4 hours of taking the contraceptive pill.
