Default Advice needed- Can I?

I'm going to the beach next weekend...and AF is coming right then!

I was wondering if I could skip a period by starting a new pack of yasmin as soon as the current pack is finished.

I can't talk to my doctor about this...because I currently have no doctor! So I was wondering if anyone on here had any experience or info on this.

Thanks!

Madison ~ Yes you can do this. Just skip the inactive pills (sugar/iron/placebo) in your pack and start straight on the new pack and you should be just fine!!

Yes, I've read that it is safe to do this, actually, for many cycles in a row. Just be sure you have your refill since you will run out earlier than usual.

Hate to be the wet blanket here, but I tried to do this recently and bled non-stop for over a week, even though I was taking active pills and hadn't missed any. I finally called my gyn who had me stop the pills and start provera to stop the bleed. So now I'm taking that and when I stop she says to expect "a gusher." My point is that this isn't guaranteed to work - although I don't take Yasmin, I understand that the same thing CAN happen on any of them. So you definitely want to be prepared for any possibility. Still, it's worth a try and I wish you luck!!
