Ok so I recently saw on a show that you can skip your period. I did some research and found this to be true. The only down side was that I would have had to start this method last month to skip my period this month. Now, I'm supost to be getting my period on my birthday and I obviously really don;t want that to happen. So I'm wondering if there's any way for me to still skip it this month, or even make it so it comes earlier or later. Any feedback would be greatly apreciated.
Thanks

Are you taking birth control pills?

never trust tv.

Yes I'm on birth control

If you're on the pill, then just skip the "sugar pills". Generally, your pack will have three weeks of active pills and then one week of inactive pills... the week of the inactive pills you get your period. Instead of getting your period that last week you can start your next pack of pills and skip it. My doctor told me that you can safely do this for up to three months, but PLEASE ask your doctor if it's something you're going to do more than just this month.

Dee, why are they called sugar pills? I just knew there was a difference because the pills for the 5th week were a different color, lol.

BTW wtf did you see on TV? Link now.

I thought it was because that's what they are filled with?

Oh, right, duh. I wish they actually tasted like sugar. It tastes like chalk.

I saw on tyra banks period episode

I did research and it said that if I wanted to skip it for this month (october)
I would have had to skip the sugar pills last month to see results for this month

you listen to what this lady says??

^ C'mon, you can't deny that was a very intellectual moment. :\

Beenly gettin' in on the Tyra-cons. ;)

lol, I just don't take them. Never have, actually.

@OP, I'm surprised your doctor never told you this...

LMAO that's too funny

but no it wasn't her that said it she had doctors on talking about it
