It is very likely you will have some spotting and possibly an altered cycle if us stop BCP mid-cycle. I don't think calling it bad is accurate - just not something you should do if you can help it, because of the irregular cycle it will cause.

Technically, there is nothing keeping you from taking the pill whenever you want. The human body varies from person to person. However, if you have a schedule that calls for taking the pills a certain number of days in the week for example, and taking the pill on Tuesday would affect the treatment of the pill on your body, you should probably stick to your schedule. Ask your doctor, if you can, for a more detailed answer.


If you stop taking the pill the week after period can you get pregnant?

Yes. Even missing one day of the pill will reduce the effectiveness of the pill. If you missed a week, the effectiveness of the pill increases a lot. I would recommend using a condom or other form of non-hormonal birth control for the next month (as it will take a month for the pill to be at 99.99% effectiveness again.

Is it okay to stop taking your birth control pill in the 3rd week and have a period for 7 days and then continue taking your 3rd week pills after?

You can do that, although I'm not sure why you would, unless you just want to have a period earlier. If you do so, be sure to start your next pack's active pills immediately after completing that third week's pills. Do not take a "placebo week" or "pill free week," as you will risk prenancy. Use a back up method of birth control during the week you're taking that "third week" late.
