Can I stop my period with pills?

Question

I have been taking birth control since July 2017 and I take 21 pills and then I let my period come. I stopped taking pill on last Friday and got my period on this Monday.. am I allowed to start taking new pack of pills tomorrow even though my period isn’t over yet? I usually always waited until it was done but can I just start taking them and stop my period this way?

Answer

I don't think there is really a way to stop your period since it's a natural cycle and it's your body cleansing itself out I take birth control but it's a patch and obviously I can't get a refill on it until the time comes when they're ready but I don't think there's really a way to stop it but you're going to be using a lot more and I don't think that would be very good because you would be putting more hormones into you and I don't know

Answer

When I was on the pill, my period started on the first day of my new pack every time. Starting your new pack on time will not stop your period. You need to take your pills on the scheduled days or they are not effective, because you are missing pills by waiting for your period to end.

Answer

Yes skipping the placebo pills will cause a missed period but you should ask your docotr first if it's safe.
