I skipped a week of inert pills before my wedding so I didn't have my period while on my honeymoon. Yikes - talk about an entire month of PMS! (Admittedly, the wedding stress might have had something to do with that...)

I found out later that you should only do the inert-pill-skipping thing if you are on a monophasic pill. If you are on a multiphasic one (the hormone levels change from week to week), then its not so good. You may want to ask about using a monophasic pill and trying the same method...and remembering that it may take 3-4 months for everything to get regulated properly.

Oh, and there's Seasonale, which gives you 3 months straight without any inert pills.
