Using the Pill

LegacyUser

Hi all,

Just wondering if any one has any opinions on the using the bill to bring forward your period?
I'm pretty sure I read that if you stop taking ur pill a day early (eg I'm supposed to finish tonight - ie take my last pill tonight, but If I don't take it tonight) can I get my period early? I'm heading away on hols sat week - due period on monday/tues and would like to be finished before I go?
I'm awful at taking it lately - it's so bad. I have forgotton two nights in a row. I've been so careful using extra protection etc.
I've tried the injection and it didnt' suit me at all - i put on a lot of weight and was depressed and down all the time.
Anyway any advice on the taking one less pill to bring forward your period?

Thanks!!!

I've never heard of using the pill to bring forward your period, but if you take two packets back to back, without the usual gap, you can stop your period from occurring. Be prepared for some spotting however.

NOTE: For real advice, head to your doctor, or family-planning clinic. We can't offer true medical advice here. it might also help if you say what pill you're currently taking, as they're all a bit different.

Yep, if you take two strips back to back and leave out your week off, you won't have a period

why you would take advice on this from strangers on the internet is beyond me.
Ask your doctor, this is not a medical board
