The week you get your period you take sugar pills. I don't take them. Why would i take those. They are only there to help you remeber to take a pill every day if you forget. that wasn't the question.


Answers:

I've done that, but I couldn't continue because my insurance wouldn't refill the prescriptions that quickly. It's perfectly healthy to skip your period by continuing to take the pill. There are some new BC pills that are actually planned out that way. The only reason the sugar pills are there is because BC was designed by men and they thought we'd miss having a period, so they put that week in there. The only point I see in it is reassurance that you're not pregnant, but if you're consistent with the pill that's not much of a concern.
