Can you skip your period naturally?

Answer 1

The answer previously given is false. Birth Control CAN be used to purposely miss a period. In fact, some women are prescribed birth control for that purpose. It's recommended that you only do this with mono-phasic pills (pills which have the same hormone levels every day of the month) and not tri-phasic pills (which have fluctuating hormone levels depending on the week). Basically, when you get to the end of the "active" pills of the pack, you immediately start taking the "active" pills of a new pack and skip the week of placebo pills altogether. This prevents you from having a "period", which is really just a withdrawal bleed from the lack of hormones when you're taking the placebo pills. It's important to remember that if you plan to do this continuously (and not just once for something like a honeymoon), you should still allow your body a withdrawal bleed once every three months. I can tell you from personal experience, there's a good chance that if you don't allow these withdrawal bleeds, your body will flush it out anyway. I went six months without having a period (on purpose) and now I'm having dark brown spotting because my body is flushing out all the old blood and lining from the past 6 months. It's nothing harmful, but certainly unpleasant. You should also bear in mind that, for many women, skipping the placebo pills doesn't always work to prevent all bleeding, and you may still have some light spotting, especially in the first few months of an extended-cycle regimen. Hope this helps!
You can try to skip your period on the birth control pill by going straight from the active pills of one pack to the active pills of the next pack, without the seven day break. There is no increased risk of pregnancy from doing so, and no limit on how many times you can do it. However, you may have spotting or unscheduled bleeding.
Instead of taking the reminder pills go straight to a new pack. Just dont make a habit of it
You just get a new pack of pills, dont take your sugar pills and start the new pack of pills instead.
You can just start a new pack of pills on the day your supposed to take the reminder pills. I do this every other month or when i don't feel like dealing with a period.
If you are on a BCP with 21 active pills and 7 inactive or another combination of pills with a hormone free week - you skip the inactive pills and go straight to the new packet the day after your last active pill in the first pack.

Ask your doctor or pharmacist which style of pill you are taking, some pills are designed to stop your period - so starting the new packet too soon or skipping pills will cause break through bleeding.
You can skip a period on the pill by skipping your last week of "inactive" pills in your pill pack. Instead of taking your "inactive" pills, you start taking your first week of the next month's pill pack. However, I had a friend do this and the next month, her period was twice as bad. I'm not sure if this happens to all women who choose this option.

Answer 2

Take the contraceptive pill. But take the active pills everyday. When the week comes to take a sugar pills/the inactive ones, throw out the pack and start on the active pills in the new pack. So you use 3 of the 4 weeks of tablets in each pack. You take an active pill every single day. You don't actually have periods when you are on the pill it is withdrawal bleeding because you have stopped taking active pills for one week. Doctors are now saying it is better not to have periods every month, historically women have never had so many periods as they have now. We start earlier, finish later and have only 2 or 3 pregnancies in our whole reproductive lives, compared to years ago. Only problem can be that you go through the packs quicker so you may have problems with insurance covering it. 'Seasonale' healps with that as it provides, i think, 3 months worth of active pills in one pack, rather than the usual 3 weeks. You can do the same with the patch. The ads say you have it on for 3 weeks and off for 1 but you can really pull one off and replace it immediately. I'm not sure of other methods. A friend of mine was on Depo Provera for 2 years before her periods stopped. I've been on the pill for 10yrs. I've taken the sugar pills here and there because having a period occassionally can make me feel womanly and sometimes I get to the end of the active pills but don't have time to get to the pharmacy so i have to take the week. I've thought about changing but i love not having periods. Enjoy the freedom!!!

Answer 3

Yes, drink a teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar twice a day. It's proven to work.

Answer 4

Some forms of birth control allow that. I believe the pill Seasonique makes women have only 3-4 cycles a year.
