Will IBS reduce the effectiveness of my contraceptive pill?

abbiedarlin1 asked:
I have irritable bowel syndrome. In my form, i have lots of diarrhoea throughout the entire day most days. It’s at random times and not at the same times each day. Wondering if all this diarrhoea from IBS makes my contraceptive pill less effective? If it does, by how much?

Yes it’s likely to make it less effective if you get diarrhea within 1/2 an hour of taking it. Otherwise it should be absorbed.
