if you just want to do it once, you can skip the sugar pill week and start a new pack instead. if you want to have fewer periods in general, talk to your doctor about switching to a pill like seasonique which will give you only 1 period every 3 months. however, either of these methods may cause spotting between periods.

AnswerIf you are on a 21 day pill just start the next packet the day after you finsih one. If you are on a 28 day pill with sugar pills, forget the sugar pills and start a new packet.
