Will drinking water filtered through a activated carbon (dafi) filter affect the effectiveness of Vines birth control pills if carbon particles were visible at the bottom of the bottle? The tablet was washed down with this water, probably together with these molecules

I think that trace amounts of carbon will not affect the absorption of hormones from contraceptive pills. There is no need for anxiety. I am posting an article that may be helpful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
And before I realized that these molecules were there, before taking the tablet I drank the same water 3-4 times. Does it matter? (i.e. whether the more of this water the lower the efficiency)
I will only add that it was not my bottle, but borrowed so I do not know when the filter was last replaced. Suggesting the presence of carbon in the water I think that quite a long time ago, which worries me
