Okay, so....
I start bleeding a few days after I finish the 4 week pill cycle, and it lasts for about 4 days. I'm now 8 days into a new pack. So, if I carried on as normal my next period would start around the 24th Feb. As I go on holiday on the 29th, it would be cutting it a bit fine.
So, if I cut out say 4 days of the oestrogen only pills, would that bring the period forward by 4 days? Or as I understand it, if I finish this course then carry on with the oestrogen + progesterone from the next pack, cutting out the oestrogen only, it would delay the period until they finished?
If that's right I think I would rather do the first option and get it over with before I go.
BTW I feel absolutely fine while on the dual pills, so perhaps the combined pills would suit me. I'll look into that when I get home.
Thanks for all your help
