No: When a woman is taking birth control pills, she should take 1 pill each day in order of the pills in the pack. You should not vary this regimen unless directed by the physician who prescribed the pills. Continue taking your birth control pills, one each day in order, unless your physician advises you differently. Keep a record of when your have bleeding to review with the doctor your next visit
