if you skip the sugar pills and start your next pack immediately you should not get your period at all for this cycle, when you get to the sugar pills in your next pack your period will come but it will no longer happen when it usually does. you will be changing the dates for your cycle. yes it will work and it should not cause any problems. have fun on your honeymoon!!

You *shouldn't* get a period if you continuously take the active hormone pills and skip the reminder pills. I am on Nuvaring and my Dr told me that I could do the same if I wished, but he recommended that after every third to take it out and have a period.
It is still possible that you will spot the first time or two that you do this. You didn't mention what month, but if you have time you might want to do it more than once to see how you react while you are at home. Don't wanna ruin the honeymoon with side effects.

Not taking the sugar pills will not stop your period. Start your next pack early (when you would ordinarily start taking the sugar pills ) to skip a month of having a period.

It could be late, it could be early, if you skip your pills that week it will take your cycle off track.
I did this once, and won't ever do it again. It took months for my cycle to get back on track. I'd have my period during my active pills instead of my fourth week pills so I never knew when/if I was going to get my period.
You can be romantic while on your period yaknow.
Talk to your doctor before/if you do this.

congrats on your marriage. yes you can skip the sugar pills to skip your period you might have spotting but thats all. your period will come a week earlier since you are skipping those white pills. women have been skipping periods using bc pills for awhile now. i was taking seasonale and loved it i only had 4 periods a year and my flow was super lite. i only had to use one pad all day.have fun on your honeymoon.

It depends on how your body reacts. It might work for you or your body might get confused and you could end up spotting for a while.
I mean - I guess trying it and hoping for the best is the way to go. It might work.

I've done it before! It's gonna mess up your whole cycle, but other than that it worked for me...
