Re: BC Pill issue

i think you can just take the 1st week's pills instead of the placebo pills... basically skip the last week's pills and then start the new pack.

Exactly. Skip the placebos and start the next pack right away. You might have light spotting, but it's better than full-blown AF.

yes. if you can, make the change this month, because you don't know how your body will react. I did it twice in the past, and both times I got AF for like 10 days Chat Icon Chat Icon .

Re: BC Pill issue

my period fell during my honeymoon.

I just skipped the placebos and kept taking the pill and got no period.

Same here, I was actually due to get AF two days before my wedding, which in my religion is actually a no-no (which is partly why I went on the pill when I got engaged). I just skipped the placebo week and skipped AF for that month.
