Learn how to stop your period with birth control in this Howcast video.
You call your doctor and you say, "Doc, I'm going on vacation with my boyfriend. How do I prevent my period from coming? I'm in that phase of my cycle where if I take my placebo pills, I'm going to get my period." Well, this is one of my favorite questions to answer because it gives the patient the power of deciding when or when not to have her period. And when you're on birth control pills, you have that option.
When you're taking a conventional birth control pill, one that has 21 days of hormones and 1 week without hormones, what you can do is take the pills continuously. What that means is that you take 21 active pills, and instead of taking the week of placebo pills, throw the pill pack away and start a new pack of pills. When you do that, you can skip your periods and not cause any harm to your body. It does not affect the contraceptive effectiveness of the pills, and it does absolutely no harm to your body.
If you are considering skipping your periods with the birth control pills and you are uncertain of how to do it, call your doctor or your nurse practitioner. We are happy to provide that information for you to make your life easier, and there is nothing wrong with making your life easier when you're on birth control pills. - Jak na to + styl
I was completely unaware that I could eliminate my period when I choose to do so. I am amazed that I have the power to control something that I thought was inevitable by mother nature. This is really cool!
This is not cool ... to get periods is a good thing for girls body .u may not know sweetheart

Katie Marie my period is two days
Hi
I've been on the shot for a year to two years and I still have my period
Thanks exactly what I needed to know
thank you so so much
Thank you ☺️
I have my period today, does the pill stop my period?
Preach. Why no comments on this video? I have skipped my periods for YEARS. Why aren't women getting on this?! I don't get it.
+Maane Ulv Do you know what can happen if you skip your period for months at a time? The hormones cause me to full on lose my mind so I've been skipping periods since I was much younger, I'm just worried about getting cancer or something though
+Matilda Rose Lumley tf are you talking about OMG 😂😂😂😂😂
If I'm on implanon and I take pills is it going to give me bad symptoms
D Alexandria you shouldn't take both at once
Maane Ulv Which pills
I’m on the pill but I need my period for more assurance that I’m not pregnant 😭😂😂
Same 😂😂😂
Just take a pregnancy test every one or two weeks.
@@hawaii3231 why would I do that? Pregnancy texts are like $10 and to get it every 2 weeks?!? No thanks my period is free 😂
@@DejaZhane average pregnancy test works out to about $5 when you buy them in packs of 2 or 3. I don’t know about you, but I would rather spend $5 a week or two than bleed and have cramps etc. for 5 or 6 days a month. Plus the bleeding you have on the pill isn’t complete reassurance that you’re not pregnant, it can still happen even if you do become pregnant.
Help me, I have my peroid and I'm scared cause i got raped when I was 5 because of my brother and i dont wanna get preggo-
Hello, Dr.. I hope you notice my comment. I would like skip my period for a vacation. However, my first day is due on May 11th which is 2 weeks from now. If I start taking active pills from tomorrow, will I still be able to skip/delay my period?
I have bleeding spotting problem plz anybody give me a good suggestion
My period is not stopping for 1month and 15 days what should l do for stop them. And l am justv13 years ol.
Going to buy them ASAP X😆😆😆😆
Will this increase my risk of any types of cancer?
Hey so I started my period about 3 years ago, and it's been real painful. I'm starting Gianvie or however you spell that birth control. How light will my period get taking it?
blu chief hey, if that pill don’t work I recommend the mini pill (the progesterone only pill) you take daily with no breaks, I used to suffer so bad with heavy periods every month to the point where normal painkillers were getting immune to me and stopped working, went to the doctors and they offered me the mini pill and I haven’t bled for 3 years! You got to see what suits your body everyone is different
Geo GTAV I’m 11 and I’m honestly tired of this already, I can’t live my life like I used to. Can I take this?
@@gxrgie2696 I'm barely starting to take the mini pill and I went from heavy bleeding to just spotting. How long will it take for the spotting to go away? I'm SO tired of wearing pads and liners 😑
@@gxrgie2696hii, when you get off the pill do you automatically get your periods back
May be if I want to use birth control pills to protect myself from not getting pregnant and I don't want to spike my periods every month what should I do
The side effects from stopping your period varies. From my personal experiences, I would never do it again 😢
Right now I said d same....mine hardly coming
@@blessnee1390I used an mild iron supplement and that got mine under control. I was having continuous flow for many days
what about the side effects
What if your period is due in 3 days?
thanks I needed that

I am going through menopause and taking birth controls pills but I am have periods twice now for this month ,I have to be taking norculut to stop my annoying periods
Please please read this comment before you do this I have been using birth control back to back for almost two years, I started complaining about heavy long cycles when I was 16, they told me to skip them, I said no, I complained for four more years before I finally tried it, at first it was just anoying that it wasn’t working completely, I would spot, but I figured it’s not a big deal, months later I wasn’t just spotting I was bleeding once or twice a month randomly for a day or so, I went it and complained they said we don’t have any information, just keep skipping it, it should regulate by a year and stop comming, that year later it was still happening, they had no info so I gave up and went to my dr, he said just keep skipping, they wer random but at least they wer short.... then this year I bled all of January, and most of February, they still said we don’t know, they ran blood work, and did ultrasounds and Pap smears and a CT scan, I am in perfect health, the advice was as always just keep skipping it, a month later I bled for over 40 days, HEAVY, my iron got low, I lost weight from being in to much pain to eat, or I would vomit from pain, this year I have in total, out of the 9 months on 2019, I have bled 5 of those months, the drs still tell me every time I go, you can skip them, now I am ignoring ALL of them and I will be lucky if I regulate again.
this happened to me as well
@@camillebinford what does it mean? Should I try birth control pills? Because I have been bleeding for 1 month now
I'm so sorry! Good luck to you.
This also happened to me. For some of us (I am so very anemic) the hormones in the birth control pill does the opposite effect on not bleeding. I found this out the hard way. When I took my pills I didn't bleed for maybe a week then it was a heavy blood flow for a month and a half straight. It was torture😩 The doctor told me the same thing they told you and I made the decision to take myself off the pills. I still bled for like 2 weeks after that and thankfully my periods went back to normal every month but I naturally have long heavy periods (lasting for 12 to 14 days with heavy blood flow and clotting). I have fibroids and I did the surgery but unfortunately they came back. It was heaven on earth being able to experience what some would call a "normal" period lasting only about 6 days with little to medium blood flow and barely any clotting. Because my fibroids came back I'm back to averaging about 10 to 12 days every month with heavy blood flow but it beats bleeding a whole month straight😩
@@latoyagodwin1064 could you pls tell me what your age is when you faced this… did you period stop naturally?
I hate having periods, but not sure if wanna go that far
same i just read a comment of this person saying they bled for 40 days when they took birth control pills
@@pixie77531 saame. I would want to stop my periods because it's inconvenient and I think it's unfair having them when I need to work. Some people say it's absolutely safe but I just can't believe it can be safe to start taking pills every day, it can't be that simple...
You could have less periods instead of stopping completely, say once in two months
@@pixie77531when I started BC the day my period came, my period ended up going from 7 days to 17 days. Once I stopped the pill, it went back to 7. But I almost killed myself bc I already have extreme depression. But when I get my period, it's a billion X worse. So 17 days of that...yeahhh
How do I
Stop my peroid when a event comes

Advice?
talk to her and i’m sure she’ll understand. show her this video and some articles about this topic.
i got prescribed birth control for my periods when i was 13, so i’m sure your gp would be willing to do the same.
you can get birth control from planned parenthood, i wish you luck!!
What about the shot?
So if I am on my period now can I start talking it and it will work with in 24 hours and so if I am on my period and I start taking it and my period stop and when my period is suppose to be over I stop taking it will I get my period?
Cecelia I want to know too
I would like to know too
I've been skipping for a year; it works kinda like normal bc where you won't bleed within 24 hours of stopping, more like 48. Then if you get back on it while bleeding, it will take about 48 hours to stop as well, give or take. So 2-3 days for the change to take place in either direction
Reading that comment gave me a seizure
@@AKFamily08 😂😂
Anybody know how late I can start taking them ? My periods due any day now😩If I start taking them today will she be a no show ?
If you come to me I can delay it for 9 months

i know that this an old comment, but if you talk to your parents and your doctor, you can probably get something figured out, especially if your periods are particularly heavy or painful.
