Is It Safe To Reschedule Period In Advance And How To Do It?
Hi, I have been on the pill, micro estrogen 1/20, 28 day pack, for about a year; I have had no complications from it. I have been reading it is safe to reschedule your period. In march i am scheduled to have my period the same week as spring break. For spring break I am seeing my boyfriend who I will not see for 2 months. Can I safely reschedule my period in advance to a different week? How can I and what is the safest? Would I skip the placebo week and take all 3 weeks of active pills?

Hello,
You can postpone your periods by rescheduling your contraceptive pills.
The moment you stop taking active pills in your pack,start active pills from the new pack instead of taking inactive or placebo pills.
You can stop taking active pills,when you want to have your periods.
The moment you stop your active pills,you shall get your periods in next few days.
Thanks
