This is probably a no-brainer but i need
to hear it from somebody else. my
girlfriend is on birth control and shes
taking a 28 pill pack. she takes the pills
on time everyday but she never takes the
last 7 pills in the pack (sugar pills is
what she calls them.) after those 7 days
shes begins the next 28 pack and once
again only takes the first 21. is this
alright to be doing? she says she doesn't
need the extra sugar that the last 7 pills
give her. she is probably right but i just
want to hear it

I think its okay. But I'm not positive. I
think the sugar pills are to keep you
taking pills so when starting your next
you don't forget. I would ask her if she
has talked to her dr about it. If so then
she is just fine.
