Birth Control.

Sorry for another BC question but...
my boyfriend is vising in on April 11th to the 16th. And I should start taking my placebo pills on the 13th. I usually get my period by the 2nd or 3rd placebo pill. But since my boyfriend is visiting and we want to take advantage of all of our time together...is it possible that I can take the placebo pills a week earlier without risking protection? I would just skip the entire placebo week this month but last time there was a lot of spotting and I don't want to deal with that again. Thanks in advance. You guys are amazing. =]

Nope, it's not possible. You need to take at least 21 active pills before the placebo week in order to be guaranteed protection during it. Stopping active pills early will mean that your protection will be compromised.
