Minastrin
UpdatedI use minastrin 24e and want to delay my period for an upcoming vacation. I am planning on just starting another pack of active pills instead of taking my four placebo pills. My question is, if my pack of active pills stops on a tuesday (and the placebo pills go wed-saturday, which I will skip). I know I start the new pack of active pills the day after I finish my other active pills, but Do I start the new pack of active pills on the day it says sunday on the pack (first day of pack), or do I skip/throw away sunday-tuesday active pills and just start on the first wendesday active pill?

There is nothing in those pills that lets them know what day of the week you're taking them, so you don't need to throw any out. You can just take each of the white ones, as you normally would.
But please make sure that your skipping your period is approved by your physician.
Is there anything else I can help with?
