Yes you are still protected during the sugar pill week, as long as you haven't missed any of the active pills. I think it's best to wait til the end of the pack or it can mess up your cycle a bit. It wont make that much difference I don't think.

The sugar pills are generally taken the week of your period, you are not protected during this time. If you have been on the pill for a while and want to stop, I'd talk to you doctor about going off. When my doc. took me off, it was after I had finished my last pack. Yes, the book is quite confusing. Good luck
