Hi again, sorry for all the questions, but I get so much great advice from this board!


Anyways, I'm on Day #4 of the placebo pills.

Hugs, Vicky

Hi Vicky,

I'm glad AF showed up. If you have taken your pills correctly then you will be protected for the 7 24-hour days of your placebo week, but no longer. There is no reason to cut your placebo week short, unless you want to move your start day or your period. If you do want to move your period then I think you should wait for at least 4 or 5 cycles to see what day AF finally decides to arrive since there is usually some movement until your body adjusts to the new hormones.

Good luck,

      Jill
