Can you skip a period while taking birth control?
Yes you can, with no increased risk of pregnancy or other complications, except for possible unscheduled bleeding or spotting. Skipping your period by starting the next pack early does not increase the risk of pregnancy, and may even decrease the risk. Just skip the sugar/placebo pills the last week and start a new pack of active pills and you won't get your period.
The "special" birth control pills for skipping periods are not special at all. They are just typical birth control pills that have been on the market for years, but were repackaged in a three-month package with eleven weeks of active pills and one week, of placebo pills instead of the typical three-and-one pattern. You can do this with any type of pill, although it's most effective with monophasic pills instead of those with three different hormone doses.
