Yes you can, I have done it a few times myself but for no more than 5 days later (so a period of 13 days without Birth Control pills and then starting another pack) You can also immediately start another pack of birth control pills after you have finished the first to delay your period for two months. I wouldn't suggest delaying it for more than those two months though.

Yes you can delay your period by starting a new pack on the day that you would start taking your placebo pills. You may experience spotting or breakthrough bleeding during the month and you will not get your period on the day that you usually would get it either.

Your period should not start unless you take a placebo pill. If youre already in menstration, it will eventually stop your period until you start placebo. To skip. Period, just skip the sugar pills which do not do anything, and start your next active pill.

Yes, you can do so. Just remember the rule that you should go no more than seven days without an active pill, and that you may have spotting or unscheduled bleeding.

That's the perfect time to change the time you take them. Just make sure you start the new pack no more than seven days after you took the last active pill.
