Just say no! asked in HealthWomen's Health · 1 decade ago

I just started my period and I'm early. What should I do?

I am headed to Hawaii on Thursday morning and I CANNOT be on my cycle. I am 38--done having kids--tubes have been tied for years BUT because I have had issues with my cycle I have 6 packs of BCP's here at the house. I just popped 3 pills (Sun, Mon, Tues) and am hoping it leaves! I can call the DR. in the morning and see if I can pick up something else but I'm not sure if I will be able to make it into the office. If I keep popping the pills will it stop? Is this enough time?

It's still VERY light--I'm not even using tampons/pads--just a liner...

Update:

I don't take them on a regular basis. Will one a day stop it from coming since they are not in my system?

    Taking more pills then prescirbed a day is a bad idea. Just take one active pill a day, skip your inactive. You should be fine. Just ONE a day.
