Can taking birth control pills increase menstrual cycle length?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
U mean period length: It should make your periods shorter, and it should not affect the overall length if you take the placebo pills, you can skip the placebo pills under the supervision of your doc if you do not want to get a period which is a perfectly acceptable thing to do if u do not want the period.
