just keep taking your pills as you are but when u are about to finish the pack just take a new pack with you and continue taking it that way you wont have ur period! ull skip it for that month!!! so two packs back to back No SUGAR PILLS!!

I dont think that would work b/c it would throw your whole body off...call your gyno and ask before you do anything my gyno always knows how to work it out

Re: how do i push back my period by a week?
I'm due to get my period close to the wedding too, so I'm just skipping the last week of pills and going straight to a new pack. I tried it out a few months ago and it worked amazingly.

If you skip the placebo week, you will just start on the next set of pills instead and give yourself another 3 weeks.

Jenise don't screw with it now -- when you finish your pack on your HM just start up your next one right away. and then you won't get it for that month and be back on schedule the following month.

Re: how do i push back my period by a week?
It also depends on which pill you're on. I can't just do two pack back to back. I'm on Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo and say the last pack before the green sugar pills is dark blue, I would take all the dark blue pills and then more blue pills from a new pack-as many days as you want to push it back. 1 pill= 1 day. I pushed mine back a whole week. You can call the gyno and ask for help but it might be too late. It will be ok don't worry!!

Re: how do i push back my period by a week?
im in the exact same situation, i want to push mine back one week and i thought i could just take 2 more weeks of active pills but my doc said its only good to skip the placebos but then do a whole month.we dont have enough time to skip it 2 months and move it up 2 weeks bc under 2 months to go. these are our options:
skip it a month now (skip the placebos) and move it up a week and hope its gone by wedding day, or skip the placebos the week of the honeymoon and hope for no spotting.
not sure which im going to do! but gotta decide soon :( wish i had planned more ahead

Just don't take the sugar or iron pills of your BC. Start a new pack
