This happened to me and my GP told me you can take microginan (sorry can't spell it!) continuously (without a break) for three months in a row and it is absolutely fine with no risks. He said the reason combined pills were thought to be best taken with a 7 day break was initially for religious reasons. The Catholic Church thought not having a bleed was unnatural so that's why women have been told to do it for decades. But there is no risk in taking it for a few months continuously!
