It would postpone your period, however the uterean lining would still build up on top of the previous months. When you eventually decide to have your period it will be more uncomfortable than usual and may even last longer. I wouldn’t recommend it.
yeah, i do that when i don’t want to get my period. just take the first pill in the new pack the day you would take the first placebo. don’t do it all the time or you’ll get breakthrough bleeding.
