I've taken BC pills for 25 years. I am interested in taking them back to back to prevent a period at all. I have researched and there are special pills manufactured to do just that. I was under the impression that you could just take your regular brand pill pack back to back instead of the "reminder pills" in between packs. I think I did this by accident years ago and they had me continue the pack, and just start a new one after 7 day break.
I've heard of people doing this for a planned event like a wedding, athletic event or even a vacation. In my case I am taking a vacation.
I am NOT interested in how you feel about the issue, only how it is done? When you are on BC pills, you period is not a normal period anyway, there is no need for it if you don't intend to conceive and I don't.
Have any of you done this? If so, if you used a 28 day regime, 21 b/c pills and 7 blank pills, on day 22, instead of the blank pills did you just go on to take another pack of pills?
