How Do You Skip A Menstrual Cycle?
For a lot of women, the menstrual period seems to always come at the most inconvenient time, for example, during a beach vacation. At such times, your menstrual cycle can be a huge nuisance. However, there is a way to skip your period in a given month — although its health risks and benefits are debated — with the help of a birth control method. Obtain a prescription for birth control pills or contraceptive patch from your doctor if you are not already using one of these methods. Follow the instructions listed on the birth control package for using the pill or patch for the first three weeks following the starting date. Do not start taking the placebo pills marked for Week 4, or give yourself a week off from wearing the patch during the week you are supposed to have your period. Open a new pack of pills or the patch instead and begin using it as intended for Week 1 to restart the cycle a week earlier than it is supposed to. Continue to wear the patch or to take the pills in the order
