How to delay menses: Lutera is a classic hormonal birth control pack in that it has 21 active pills followed by 7 inactive/sugar pills. Menses occur when you take the 7 inactive pills. But standard way to delay, even avoid, your menses (for that fun vacation etc) is to skip the sugar pills and immediately start the next pack immediately w/o wait. That way, your hormones will remain higher & you won't have your menses.
