When you skip the sugar pill on birth control....?



What happens? Does blood just keep building up? Because when you take the sugar pill, you have a period.

The 'sugar pills' are placebos. Many women don't even take those...........as long as you take all the active pills, the placebos/sugar pills are just to help you remember to take one on a daily basis. You'll still get your period just the same whether you take those extras or throw them away.
I don't take the sugar pills lol. Try it one time and I guarantee you'll have a period.
I don't take the sugar pills but here is some info for you

on how the Birth Control pill works

you don't have to take those last row of pills, they are basically there to help you to remember to take your pills everyday, but be sure not to miss any of the active pills. Some birth control pills don't even have the sugar pills.
If you skip the reminder pills and go right to the next pack, you will not have a period. If you skip taking the placebo pills, but wait a week before starting your next pack, you will have a period. What causes you to have a period is actually withdrawl from the hormones you have been taking during the 3 weeks with the active pills, not taking the reminder pills.
