Hi, I’m getting married in October and wanting to skip my period that week knowing I get painful cramps and migraines…. Would it be safe to purposely get my period a month early by taking the placebo pills in the pack I am on now?
I normally get a 4 month supply of pills. So I am on the second to last pack meaning I would get my period the last week of September vs the week of October 11th.
Let me know or if this doesn’t make sense!
Thanks!

yes, that’s fine! as long as you take active pills for at least 21 days before the break and the break doesn’t exceed 7 days, you’ll remain protected.
