[Girls] Question about Skipping Periods...

[Boo-]

Well I'm on the pill and my period is due soon, but its fallen on basically the one weekend I didn't want it to!

Just wondering if its true if you carry on taking the pill you can skip your period for that month?

+rep for any good comments.

[clarissa !!]

i know a few people on the pill and when they dont want theirs they just continue taking them. i think its ok to do it for one month but dont keep doing it for months at a time cause when you let it come it'll be awful.

[Boo-]

Yea thats what I thought, if you miss it just make sure you let your next one come.

Thanks +rep

Boo- or you can go to the doctors and they can give you something so you dont come on because my friend is going on holiday and she got something to stop her from coming on. Sorry very vague [sp?]

progestogen, i think

if you take the pill when you're supposed to be on it should lighten/stop your period for that month,
or, as said above you can go to the doctors and they give you these pills that you take three times a day and that'll stop your period, though they make you come on really heavy afterwards.

If I did skip my period for this month by carry on taking the pill, when im next on will it be heavier? or just normal still?

[Charley]

it will most probably be heavier. I've done it once. its different for everyone though
