Hi Hilda

 

I would contact your gynecologist about this.  Stopping suddenly will probably mess up your cycle and begin your period before it is due. 

 

See what your doctor tells you about when it would be best to stop taking them and also how to start up again for when you are with your husband.

 

Thank you for your question.
