Normally you would take 3 weeks active pills, and 1 week nonactive. To skip your period you would take active pills in place of nonactive for the 4th week. When you would normally start a new pack, right after the 4th week, is when you would start.
No. Drinking water does not stop your period, but, you can delay your period by being really active for a day. This will delay your period for about 3 days or so.
No, if you have had a cold at the time of ovulation it can then delay cycle but a common cold should not delay you period
Your period should not usually delay unless you are pregnant.
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.
Can taking kelp delay your period? if so should I stop taking it? I feel fine otherwise.
You should still get a period each month while on birth control. You will usually start your period during the week that you take your placebo pills, because they have no hormones in them. If you skip the placebo pills and start your active pills instead, this will delay your period.
No this will not delay a period.
No this will not delay your period.
just keep waiting, it could be a delay of hormones from your body.
I'm also on Diane (protip Brenda-35 is exactly the same and half the price) and if you want to delay or even skip your period just skip the white (placebo) pills and take the next yellow (active) pill in the pack. FYI it's not unhealthy or dangerous for you to skip or delay your period for a month or two.
If you are sexually active, perhaps you are pregnant? Or it is very possible that stress, changes in diet or activity will cause your period to delay by as much as a month or 2.
no it isn't safe to do. It could make you sick. Only take one every day. Even if you took two on the same day it wouldn't delay your period.
