Question About Skipping Your Period... Posted: 08-28-06 18:13pm
Ok, I am going on a road trip next week
and my period is due for the exact days
that I am gone....Uggghh... I have never
skipped my period before, but I
definitely want to do it. I know you can
skip your period by starting your next
pill pack with out giving yourself the
week rest from the pill. However, I am on
tri cyclen, and there are different
amounts of hormones each month, so can I
still skip my period with tri cyclen if I
just skip the sugar pills and start the
next pack right away?

With tri cyclic birth control pills, you
are less likely to skip a period and more
likely to have prolonged bleeding into the
next pack.
Monophasic pills are best to use when
skipping.
Also, most women cannot skip the first
time they try, because you need 2-3 months
for your body to adjust and skip.
