A member asked:
Hey i'm 17 been on tri sprintec bc pills for 4 years just started a new pill last week microgestin fe 1.5 is it safe to skip period pills ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but...: You don't have to take the pills during the placebo week. There is no hormone in these pills, only iron. It's generally recommended to keep taking the pills so you stay on schedule and don't forget to start the next pack of pills.
