How Can I Skip My Period? Help
Posted: 02-19-07 16:44pm

During the summer I have every other Sunday off. Currently I am on birth control and I realized that I will get my period during some of my days off. I want to make my period a week later then it is so I can get my period when I don't have the days off. Is there a safe way to do this??

I know that I can skip the inactive pills and go straight to the active pills for the next month, but I don't want to just skip it once. I want it to be a week later.

Help!

There are no guarantees...

You can try and skip a period, but most women will bleed or spot anyway the first try.

You can extend your 'pill' as long as you want, you can extend your active pills one week, and then take a break.

The problem is that you can still bleed.
