Skipping my period on the Pill ?
Posted: 05-26-08 21:49pm

I am not on the Pill because I am not concerned with getting or not getting pregnant, so this is probably a dumb question. I started my period on May 17 and just realized that I will be in the African jungle on June 17. Is there any way at all I can skip my period for June, or is it too late now? Sad

if you're not already on the pill its probably too late, if you wanted to start the pills just to skip a period for a month then it wouldn't probably be more of a pain than just having your period, when I first started yaz I'd get random dizzy spells, and feel nauseated, random headaches and there was spotting for about a month...it took me 2-3 packs of pills before the symptoms subsided...maybe looking into a pill like seasonale in the future would be a good idea if you wanted less frequent periods, but as for starting just for a month just so you can miss your period for one month isn't worth it
