Best Answer

When you take medication, particularly one that has a hormonal effect, check with your doctor or pharmacist before stopping. A logical time would be to stop when you hit the sugar pills, or the break for your period. Otherwise, you may get an early period, nausea or other effects. The pregnancy preventative effects would be severely affected.
