How Can I Reschedule My Periods?
Hi there, I am currently on Birth Control and found out I will be on my period when I go on vacation a few months in the future. I started my pack on sunday. I will be getting my period within the next two days. I was wondering if I can reschedule my period by waiting to start the new pack in a week. If I do that, it won t effect the dates I am on vacation is. Can I do that? Is it that easy?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
If you delay starting the pack it may alter your menstrual period.
But the time of the onset of withdrawal bleeding is difficult to guess with this.
So, instead of this you can continue taking the pills with out gap during vacation.
Means after completing one pack you star next pack without gap which will avoid bleeding during vacation.
Take care.
