A member asked:
I've delayed my period with pills (mercilon) once about 6 months ago can i do it again this month? is it safe?

Continuous Regimen: You can actually delay all of your periods if you would like by taking only the active pills (first 3 weeks) and skipping the placebo/period pills continuously. By doing this you won't get a period. You may have some occasional unpredictable spotting, but this is a safe and common practice!
