Pregnancy, stress, dieting/extreme weight loss, exercising, illness - all can cause missed periods.
you can not artificially induce skipped periods... however the new Birth Control shots will decrease your period to four a year.

Can you skip your period while taking the birth control pill and is it safe?

If you didn't get your period while on the sugar pills, it's not necessarily a sign of pregnancy. Many women have very light or no periods when they first start taking the pill, it's a side effect. If you are asking if it's safe to intentionally skip a period by skipping the sugar pills and moving on to the next active pill pack, the answer is yes. You can skip your period without any increased risk of pregnancy; however, you may have unscheduled spotting or bleeding.


What happens if you start taking the pill before your period starts if you only want to skip your period?

Are you safe during your 7 no pill days?

Technically, those seven hormone free pills are the days you are supposed to be on your period. You skip those, you skip the period. If you finish your period early, yes, you are still safe to have even though you aren't taking an active pill. FYI, all these questions should be in the information packet that was included with the pills.
