Is it safe to stop taking your birth control a week before your period is due so you can get your period earlier?

Don't mess with it because once you mess up your cycle it can be hard to get back on track and there is no guarantee you will start earlier. You may also put yourself at a much greater risk of getting pregnant as you ovulate the week between your first and third. You may consider taking your Birth Control on through the week of your normal period. Skip the week off and go ahead and start the new pack as you finish the 3 week first pack. This will postpone your period until the following month (should-no guarantee) Good luck!

If you've never had your period before there is no way but waiting. If you've had it before the only way to control is it my taking birth control pills.

No worries. Just continue taking the birth control pill as scheduled.
Is it normal if you started taking the birth control Yasmin on the Sunday before your period and are now taking the sugar pills but don't have a period?
Your period would probably not come until your 3rd or 4th sugar pill. If you started taking the pills on the Sunday before your period did that period come?

Can you start taking birth control a week and a half before your period is set to come and if you do this will it suppress your period until you stop taking the pills?
If you want to suppress just the one period you can get specific pills from the doctor, but if you need contraception as well you can start birth control. However you will not be protected from pregnancy for about 3 weeks.
Does your period start automatically if your on birth control or do you have to stop taking it before your period can start?
It depends on what birth control you're on. You need to take remove the patch and the nuvaring, but if you're on the pill, have an IUD or implanon, or take the shots, your period will regulate itself.

If you have not started the birth control Yasmin yet can you stop your period from coming if you start taking it 4-5 days before it is expected?
This may stop your periof from coming but realistically you can only start Yasmin BC on the first day of your period. In most cases your period will be a lot lighter and may even finish earlier than usual for you. This is caused by the BC becomming used to your body.
