If you are on your period and want it to end a day or two early does taking one or two birth control pills make it stop?

In theory, if you start taking your active pills early (at the regular 1 per day rate), your flow should slow down and end sooner. Depending on how heavy/long your periods are, starting on your active pills early may completely end your flow in the first day or two, or it may make no difference at all.
ALso, this shouldn't affect the pill's effectiveness, but I would confirm with your doctor if you're worried. Don't make a regular habit of it, however, or you may experience frequent "spotting" between periods.

What if your period comes three days early while taking birth control?
Birth control pills/patches can really do a number on your hormones so it's quite common for your periods to be all over the place (especially when you first start taking them or you stop them.)
Are you pregnant if your period doenst come but you just started birth control?
When did you start taking birth control and when was your period supposed to come? I know that many doctors recommend that you take birth control pills for about a month before you have unprotected sex. If you're still unsure, I would recommend taking an at-home pregnancy test - some of them can detect pregnancy very early (like as soon as you miss your period, I think).
Can you start a new pack of birth control pills a day early?
Starting a pack of birth control pills a day early does not increase the risk of pregnancy; in fact, it may decrease the risk. Continue taking your pills as normal. Your period will just arrive a day early that's all.
What can you do to make your period come faster?
You can only make your period come faster if you are taking birth control pills. By finishing a pack early, you will bleed sooner rather than later.
Would taking antibiotics affect your period if you are on birth control pills and had your period two weeks early and then had it again the week after?
No. But Antibiotics are known culprits to decrease the effectiveness of birth control pill. Because of this you need to rule out pregnancy and see your doctor for a blood test.
What does it mean if you come on your period early and you not on birth control?
It means that your period came early. That's it, no more complicated than that.Also FYI on hormonal birth control you don't menstruate, you get a withdrawal bleed.
Can changing different kinds of birth control cause your period to start early?
It's possible that changing birth control pills will change the timing of your next period.
Can you stop your period early using birth control?
Birth control inhibits fertilization, not menstruation. Menstrual cycle will still continue.
What would cause bleeding a week early?
The following will cause early bleeding: * Irregular period * Pregnancy * UTI * Hormonal Imbalance * Stopping birth control * Starting birth control
How soon can you start your birth control pills to get your period early?
Starting the birth control pill will not cause an earlier period. It will delay your period. Talk to your health care provider or pharmacist to clarify what you should do next.
You have been taking your birth control correctly for over a year and just started your period a week and a half early what could be the cause of this?
Well from what i have learnt first hand. Sometimes your period will come early due to stress, a great loss within family or friends
