Asked in Birth Control, Birth Control Pill
Could taking birth control pills and substituting sugar pills with real ones all month round be harmful?
It would be pointless. The sugar pills do not contain anything
in them to keep you from getting pregnant. The placebos (or sugar
pills) are there as "reminders" to keep you in the habit of taking
them and so when you know to start a new pack. The sugar pills are
not needed during your period,that's why they are sugar pills. If
you take the placebos when you are supposed to be taking the
"active" ones, they are inaffective and you might as well not be
taking them at all.

Asked in Birth Control Pill
What is sugar pill days?
The last pills in your birth control pack do NOT have actual
medication in them. They're only there to keep you in the habit of
taking a pill every day. You will get your regular period on the
days you are taking the inactive/sugar pills. Brands vary, but most
28-day packs have 7 sugar pills in the last row. They should be
clearly marked as such, and are always a different color than the
active pills.
