Yes, if you skip the placebos and continue with your birth control pills, you will not have a period.

There are several brands on the market that are low dose made just for this purpose. You can have just a couple of periods a year.

Us old timers read about this little trick in "Cosmo" back in the old days, and it works today.

However, if you decide you'd like to go this route on a regular basis, do tell your doctor or family planning clinic that you want to go with the pill that allows you to skip periods.

Enjoy your vacation and don't worry!
