A member asked:

I started birth control pills recently and it has made it so my period will fall on my wedding in two months. is there a way to a adjust my cycle?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: You can skip your period by simply skipping the Non active week of pills. Take the 3 weeks of active pills in your pack leading up to your wedding, then start a new pack. You should have no more than possibly a little spotting. Congratulations on your marriage
