Can I shorten my pill-free break

2017-07-11 11:34:11
I'm on Femodene pills&wondering could I take a pill-free break for only 3days&then go onto my next packet? Or is it best 2 have a 4day period&then have my next packet? I've read that it's better to shorten your pill-free period than to shorten the contraceptive pills. Sois it safe&will it effect my body if I only have a 3day period&take next packet
