Hi lycheefan,
You are referring to birth control, correct? Have you experienced diarrhea from the pill in the past? Sometimes the pill can cause diarrhea, so I don’t want to advise you to take the day 3 pill until tomorrow. Can you expand on this a bit more?

Yes, please take your pills as directed! It seems like you were worried that the pill didn’t dissolve or your body didn’t digest it properly. I completely understand your concern but this is very rarely the case, so please don’t worry! Please let me know if you have any other questions.
