A member asked:

What is the best time to get off the pill? i currently up to my red pills and have my period.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Now is the time: Cyclic birth control pills (the kind where you still have a period either monthly, or every 2 or 3 months) allow you to menstruate simply by substituting placebo, just inert saccharine with no hormones, for the hormone pill during period-time. So if you're menstruating now, then the pill you are currently taking is placebo. Essentially you've already stopped birth control.
