Extended Cycle Pills: Totally safe to do extended cycles where you skip periods altogether. The pill will suppress the growth of the uterine lining and therefore there will be no lining to shed, thus no period. Sometimes there may be some small parts of the lining that break away and cause breakthrough spotting but that would be expected. It is safe to do and can start anytime.

Does not exist: There are no meds or herbs or hormones that have no side effect. Some known now and some we find over time.
