Birth Control Pill question

I had my period all worked out so that I got it about a week before the wedding. For some reason, it moved! Now I'm getting it on the 18th....which will be while I'm on my honeymoon. So, in order to move it earlier, do I take my pill now and again early next month to move it??

You may want to contact you Doctor, just in case! I'm not sure myself, I know there is a certain way to manipulate the cycle.

I stopped taking the blue pills mid-week and got mine earlier and then started the new pack earlier (BUT I'd ask your dr)

Re: Birth Control Pill question

i always just take it straight through ( the active pills) when i dont want it

my gyn said it was okay and i once skipped three cycles to go to italy and i had no problems

everyone is different though!

Re: Birth Control Pill question

I would take the remaing set of pills you are on now and then the week you are supposed to take the sugar pill (your period week) open a new pack and start all over again. You will not have your period and it will change the course of your cycle.

Re: Birth Control Pill question

I agree that you should check with your doctor, I tried to do this once and I ended up spotting for an entire month instead of skipping my period. My cousin had a special pill pack for if she wanted to skip hers.

Re: Birth Control Pill question

call the dr... I tried to move it... and got spotting and it was annoying.,.... I might end up with it too.... some people can get away with just taking another set of pills and it doesnt come... some are like me and spot... call the gyno... they will know what to tell you...
