Birth Control Q

before i started the pill, i calcuated my period will come a few days into our HM. now, i started the pill about 2 months ago, it will the day of my wedding!

is there any way for me to speed up when it will come?

Re: Birth Control Q

I would speak to your doctor, but I believe you can skip the non-hormone pills and start a new pack right away and that will delay your period.

I got my period at 12N for my 2:45 wedding. Its sucked and it was suppose to come four days prior, but I guess the stress ruined that. In all honesty, I was bummed, but didn't even think of it all day.

Re: Birth Control Q

Definately contact your DR but I did change mine for my wedding...You have to skip your period one month but consult your doctor first!!

Re: Birth Control Q

why don't you skip your period...if you have been on BC for a few months now, you can prob do this. Just the week you are supposed to take the water pills just start a new pack instead, this will cause you to skip your period

I used to change mine all the time

now my DR told me I can just take 3 packs of Yasmin in a row- and use it like seasonale

I would just double check b/c there are a few brands that it's not safe to do with

I heard that instead of taking the 4th week of pills...you skip it and start a new pack.

CALL your doc now!

I skipped my period one month (it sucked I was moody and tired) and now I will get it a week early.
