Skipping Your Period: Risks & Effectiveness of Skipping Pills


Question
i DON'T WANT TO GET MY PERIOD THIS MONTH, BECAUSE OF SOMETHING SPECIAL COMING UP.  I HEARD YOU CAN TRICK YOUR BODY BY SKIPPING THE 7 SUGAR PILLS? iS THIS HARNFUL AT ALL, AND DOES IT ACTUALLY WORK?  

Answer
It isn't any worse than taking the pills normally.  The pills are harmful to your body but since you are already taking them, skipping your period isn't going to be any harder on your body.  sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn't.  Probably most of the time it works.
