Hello, I'm taking vines tablets, currently I have 8 active pills left, all of them I took correctly. In two weeks, when I am supposed to get my period, I have a trip, I would like to get it earlier. Will it be okay if I skip the last active tablet and take 3 placebo pills and then yellow pills again? Will the protection against pregnancy still be maintained? (I care about it the most, because on this vacation after a long break I see my partner

Yes, this is the right thing to do. On Saturday, you will take your last placebo tablet, and on Sunday you will start a new pack with your first active tablet at a fixed time.
Next month, return to your usual Vines tablet regimen: 24 active (yellow) tablets and 4 placebo tablets (green). This one-time treatment to speed up menstruation will not affect your long-term pill regimen. It is important to return to a normal rhythm from the next cycle onwards, which will provide optimal contraceptive protection and regulate the cycle.
Yes, you can also take the last active tablet as planned and then shorten the placebo phase by one day. You can also skip the placebo and start the next pack immediately after taking the last active tablet. No break for withdrawal bleeding. Then bleeding will occur when taking placebo pills from the second pack.
I have attached materials that may be interesting:
And is it possible to take this active pill and only shorten the placebo by 1 day?
And next month I'm supposed to take 24 normally?
So on the day I take the last placebo pill, i.e. on Saturday, Sunday, I start a new package at my usual time?

Yes, you can skip the last yellow active ingredient pill and start taking the placebo (green) tablets earlier. After taking 3 placebo tablets, you can go back to taking the yellow tablets from the new blister.
Shortening the placebo phase to 3 days may accelerate the onset of bleeding while maintaining contraceptive protection. However, it is crucial to return to taking the active pills immediately after 3 days of placebo.
The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book Vines at a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it upon presentation of a prescription:
