Jill, No there would be no problem with doing this. Why would you want to do this? If you are trying to schedule something and want to avoid your period, just take the pill packs back to back for two months without the intervening placebo or sugar pills during which you would normally get your period. This will keep you from getting your period during that time and avoid having your period at an inopertune time... Lynn
