If you've been using the patch correctly as scheduled, you can have sex just before or during your patch-free week without special concern about pregnancy. If you've made any errors in use, use a backup method.

Can I take my birth control pills every other day to delay my period I am on vacation for a month and am not sexually active but I don't want to get my period now?
Taking the pill every other day is most likely going to cause breakthrough bleeding. You should ask your doctor about skipping the "inactive" sugar pills and starting the new packet, the day after finishing the last active pill. This is the way pills are taken to delay your period and will also continue to prevent pregnancy should you become sexually active.
Could you be at risk of pregnancy if your boyfriend pulled out and then you started taking your birth control after it considering you hadn't taken birth control pills in a while?
Basically what is being asked here: can you be at risk of pregnancy if you don't use birth control - obviously, the answer is yes. Pregnancy is always a risk when sexually active, although withdrawal can be used as birth control when used correctly other methods like the pill are more effective. You'd have to have been taking the pill for AT LEAST a week for it to be effective in preventing pregnancy.

The first day of your period will start once you stop taking the active pills.
What if you bleed while taking the active birth control pills?
I assume you are taking the pill like yasmin or something to that effect. I can honestly say that when you are taking a birth control, it is normal for it to regulate your periods, but honestly, sometimes nature comes before any chemical you can treat it. So if you think this is a major side effect, talk to your dr. If not, go with the flow. No pun intended.
