Q: How to Swtich Birth Control Pills

Hello all, I have just switched from mircette to yasmin. I was told to start the yasmin right after my last active pill in my pack of mircette, so this means no sugar pills. Does this mean that I will miss my period even if I am switching my brand of pills?? Thanks in advance for any replies.

Yes,in all probability you will skip your period.This is o.K. To do once in a while ,like to skip your period for vacation or some other event when you don't want to deal with it.As long as you do it with your doctor's o.K.,its fine.
