Good morning, if for 2 days I had a lot of stress while taking the contraceptive pill (strongly felt accelerated heartbeat) can it affect the absorption of the pill? I swallowed both pills, but I felt my heart beating strongly.

Severe stress and accelerated heartbeat do not affect the effectiveness of contraceptive pills. Only if, as a result of stress, diarrhea or vomiting occurred within 3-4 hours of taking the tablet - protection could be reduced. If you are taking additional medications due to stress - I encourage you to read our article about drugs that reduce the effectiveness of contraception: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
