You might want to ask your doctor that question and get a professional opinion. 'Tricycling' (3 months back-to-back) is the accepted norm, think Seasonale, but there are women who take the pill continuously for Endometriosis control who may be able to go a year or more without problems. If you can skip, the length of time will probably depend on how your body reacts to the pill you are taking. I think eventually the progestin in your pill will not be able to control the amount of endometrium and AF will arrive. Talk with your doc. and see what s/he says, ok?
