This is what happens when you FIRST
attempt to skip a period, which is why for
many women it takes 2-3 months to fully be
able to do it.
Basically, you just need to keep taking
your pill, the bleeding could last for a
few weeks, but it is normal.

A few weeks?! Is there any way to stop the
bleeding? Like starting a new pack or
something? I can't be bleeding for a few
weeks, my vacation is in less than 10
days!

Unfortunately, no, there is no way to stop
the bleeding. Your body's going to do
whatever it wants, there's not much you
can do about it. Starting a new pack
wouldn't do anything.

Starting a new pack will not do
anything..
YOU COULD go ahead and stop taking pills
now, and let it bleed out for 7 days, then
start a new pack.
That *can* work, but no guarantees.
This is why women are told to start
'skipping' 2-3 months before an event.
