Skipping Period's Using Birth Control

by court60, Aug 18, 2009 10:51PM
I'm 19 and I've been on Alysse birth control for about 2 years and I've been pretty good with taking them everyday and I always wait 7 days in between to allow for my period.
I'm going away to a cottage for 4 days right in the middle of when I'm suposed to get my next period and I'm wondering if its safe for me to just continue with my next pack of pills and skip my period this one time because I don't want to have to worry about it the whole trip.
What will the side effects be? If any?

Hi there, I am also on the pill and I don't like having periods every month, I have a period every other month. I take 2 packets in a row. One side effect I have is when I do have a period, it is slightly heavier than normal, and I can be a little bit more grumpy. I have done this for years and have had no problems.
