I was on that birth control when I got married. I was scheduled to have my placebo week on our honeymoon. I skipped them and had no problem with my period. However, it may not work that well for you, it will effect everyone differently. You may have some breakthrough bleeding. But, I hope it goes well for you. Have a good vacation!
