Hi,
Taking pills here and there is not a good nor reliable means of birth control. There has been a question about a small increase in birth defects with taking hormones but considering how many pregnancies occur while someone is on birth control, the risk just can't be that high. Certainly taking hormones WILL change the menstrual cycle but it isn't that reliable at delaying the period.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
