I'm not sure what you mean by "ruin" your period cycle. If you start most forms of hormonal birth control the day before your period, that period may be lighter or shorter, or absent, and your next episode of bleeding is likely to come in about 3 1/2 weeks.
Is there any way you can make your period come sooner or make it last for a shorter amount of time?
Hello The only way to make your period arrive earlier than usual for you is by taking birth control pills and by missing some pills or you can miss a period completely by continuing to take birth control pills instead of going onto the sugar pills. But you can only do this when you've been on birth control pills for about two months because the first month will be all over the place. Birth control pills do make your period lighter, less painful and can make your period shorter.
