    Well, usually when I used Yasmin, I used the pack with 21 pills, I wouldn't take pills for 7 days. But if I wanted to miss my period, I would take one pack after another without a break. What I would suggest you do is after taking the first 24 pills, start another pack immediately, don't take the 4 pink pills. That way you should skip your period. I am not a doctor so if you want more reassurance, you should call your gyne but this usually works for me.

    All the best.
