My placebo/period week is the week of July 4 but I'm going on vacation, is it okay to take the first week of the next pack during the placebo week and then take the placebo week the week that i'm supposed to take the new pack?
I'm on Levora

Yes you can do that...

BUT.. You may not skip your period at all, you could still have bleeding or spotting, is it nor 'guaranteed' that you will have zero bleeding.
