A member asked:
Can i take 3 pills of a new bc package and then go back and take placebo, and then carry on with day three of the new package again, to delay my period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If you want to delay your period, you should not take the placebo pills at all and go right into the new pack. Then you can take the whole next pack and get your period a month later.
