Breakthrough bleeding - but skipping placebos to delay period?

Sounds like your body just hasn't gotten used to your new pill. It can take up to 3 months to adjust to a new hormone. My opinion is that you may continue to have breakthrough bleeding even if you skip the placebos to start a new pack. Hopefully it would at least be light enough not to put a crimp in your visit. You can always call your doctor for advice.
