As long as you start your next packet on or before the date you were scheduled to start, skipping the sugar pills does not change the effectiveness of using the pill. You may be asking about starting the next pack early. You can do so, but the timing and amount of bleeding you have is a bit unpredictable. This may be the situation about which you're asking. Lastly, if it's your first pack of Birth Control pills, you may have choice noticed that hormonal birth control like the pill can make your period lighter than it was without the pill.

Hormonal birth control can make the period so light that it seems to disappear altogether. If you have taken your birth control correctly in the previous month, there's no need for concern. If you've made any errors, take a pregnancy test to make sure that's not the cause of your missing period.

for the first three months birth control messes with you a bit. You may skip periods, have only very light bleeding or spotting. It's something your body has to get used to. birth control does NOT stop a pregnancy that happened before starting it. Plan B however does if taken within the first 72 Hours.

Should you talk to your doctor if you do not get a period at all during your first month of use of the pill?

If this is your first month on birth control and you have not missed any pills, then see your Doctor. If you have missed pills or took too many pills, then this is why your period hasn't arrived. A period not arriving during the first month of birth control is not uncommon and can be due to your body becomming used to the medication or pregnancy. If you had unprotected intercourse during the first month of taking birth control then I would recommend you perform a pregnancy test.

What if you don't get your period on the sugar pills?

You did not get your period while you were taking your sugar pills you either could possibly be pregnant, or your birth control is making you have light or no period at all. You should take a pregnancy test or visit a physician to take a pregnancy test to know your answer at your convenience. Or if you have been on birth control for over 3 months, and take you take your birth control everyday and at the same time, your birth control may have even given you a gift of not getting a period at all. Choose which answer based on have you been taken your pills properly to determine if you may be pregnant or not.
