Question
If I don't take a whole week of active pills and start on the white inactive pills will my period stsrt sooner?

Answer
Hi Murya,

I don't recommend taking the birth control pills any other way except the correct way. Also, in general I don't recommend the birth control pill because of the hormonal content. I don't recommend any kind of hormonal birth control methods because of risks and side effects. Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com so we can talk further. Bye for now.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
