    Lightbulb Going on birth control and directly wanting to skip the "7 day break"

    Become a member to remove this ad.
    Today i started taking yasmin birth control. (i am on the fourth day of my period)
    I am seeing my boyfriend august 18th till 24th and i am suppose to finish my 21 cycle pack august 16, meaning i will have my period when i see my boyfriend. I was wondering if i could just continue swallowing yasmin BC pills (so starting a new pack right away without waiting a week first) in order to prevent my period from coming? I am wondering since i just started taking them and skipping my first break maybe isnt a smart idea? Any ideas on this? Kind regards.

    There's no guarantees that continuing on with the pack will delay your period for the time that you need. You could end up having break-through bleeding during those days anyway.

    Are you saying this is your first time being on yasmin? Why'd you start the pack on the fourth day of your period?
