Ortho-TriCyclen: Unexpected Bleeding After Skipping Period - What to Do?

Question
I have been using the pill for approx. 6 months and have had no problems with my period. I was married three weeks ago and decided that I'd like to skip my next period so that I could enjoy my honey moon. So, immediately after taking the  last horomone pill in my 28-day pack I started taking the "white" pill in the new pack, but instead of stopping my period, I have been bleeding lightly/consistently for about a week. I am still taking the pill every night but I am continuing to bleed. Do you have any suggestions/answers as to why my system would be acting this way?

Thank you for your time!

Kind Regards,

Answer
This happens to some people. Some just aren't able to skip their period. I was able to skip it for a month at a time without any breakthrough bleeding, but a friend of mine can't do it at all! You can try again another month, but my guess is that your period is just going to come anyways!
