I need some advice. I've read online that you can skip your period by just starting a new pack instead of starting the "white" (placebo) pills. I really am interested in this, as I am going to be on vacation, starting the day I would begin taking the placebos. My fiance follows biblical laws (Leviticus) and so we can't sleep in the same room while I'm menstruating... so, we'd have to pay for 2 rooms if I can't use this method. Has anyone done this to skip a single period? All advice welcome, thanks in advance!

My daily meds:
2000mg Metformin, 150 mcg Synthroid
1000 mg Fish Oils, Nature Made Multi for Her (with Iron and Calcium), Calcet triple calcium with vit d, 250 mg Magnesium, Bayer Aspirin, 500 mcg sublingual B-12
I would talk to your doctor and see what they say. I know I plan on talking to mine on Monday. As I'm getting married in August and don't want to be on my period then.

i'm scheduled to get my period on my wedding day.. so i'm going to start a new pack instead of taking the sugar pills. i've done this before with my yasmin and it's been great. however, when i skipped for 2 months... the 2nd month i was spotting...so i know for me on yasmin, i can skip 1 month and be fine... i'd definitely talk to your doc though because each pill is different....some may cause you to spot while others don't. GOOD LUCK!
yes, my doctor said it was absolutely fine and not to worry ...i've actuallly heard this whole thing that women don't need a monthly period..and that 4 times a year is plenty, blah blah blah.... but i'm just going to skip this one month
I used to start a new pack when I wanted to skip a cycle and I never had any issues. I do agree speak with your doctor first just to make sure. Usually skipping 1 every now and then doesn't hurt anything.

Whenever I want to skip, I just skip the placebos and it skips it. Sometimes there is some spotting. The doctor said it was fine as long as it isn't very often.
Using BCP to avoid period this month?
