I am going into my 4th cycle of bc pills. I am one week away from inactive pills of a 28 day pack. I got my period and want it to stop. Can I start a new pack of pills and stop it that way?

No, it may not cause it to stop at all. Breakthrough bleeding happens occasionally in all women, and the best thing to do is to 'ride it out'.

When women skip placebos and go into a new pill, they risk having even MORE BREAKTHROUGH bleeding.

Did you take any pills late? Take any herbal supplements or antibiotics?
