Need Help Figuring Out What To Do With Sprintec..
(Newest replies first)

So I am going home next this friday through sunday but I am supposed to be on my period that weekend. I would like to not have this problem seeing as I am in a long distance relationship and barely get to see my boyfriend. I only have one blue pill left so I was wondering if I could just skip it and let myself have a period? Mine usually only three days. Also If I did this I would be able to start taking the blue pill on the Saturday that I am home and still with my boyfriend. Thanks for the advice:)

Nope you helped:) I would like to try to skip it but my period is really persistant so I feel like if I did I would just have it anyways while still on the active pills

Unless your doctor says that there is some medical reason why you shouldn't, you could just keep taking active pills and skip your cycle entirely this month.

Many women do that, when taking oral contraceptives at times having their period would be inconvenient and there is really no harm in it. It isn't necessary to have a period every month.

You should make sure that it's okay with your doctor, but if it is, then it may be the best solution. I understand how that would suck.

Alternatively, yes you could just let yourself have it early.

Are there any other questions?
