Skipping Periods?

Paulina • My name is Paulina, I live in sunny California. I am currently a full time student and I serve in the United States Army
Has anyone skipped their placebo pills and gone straight into a new pack to skip a period? I'm in the military and have some tough training coming up and I'm sure I'll get my period in that time. (Yay me!) I just wanted to know if it'll work and if I'll get a "normal" period the following month. :) thanks ladies.
