going to sound dumb but..
what does the pill actualy do? does it actualy stop your period or jus delay it? 
so what does it do?
The Pill is a tablet containing two female-type hormones – an oestrogen (pronounced ‘ee-stro-jen’) and a progestogen
What these two hormones do is to stop you from ovulating (‘producing an egg’) each month. And if you don’t ovulate, you won’t get pregnant.
In addition, the hormones thicken the secretions round your cervix – thus making it more difficult for sperm to get through. Also, they make the lining of your womb thinner, so that it is less receptive to an egg.

this may also help
You take it for 3 weeks and then have one week off. During that week off you do have a period, but it's more of a "withdrawal bleed" from the hormones than a proper period
and is that why tey say it is supposedly meant to be less painful becuase it isn;t a proper period i took a pill which name began with a M i don't know the name it was something 36 i think, it made it worse!!

Microgynon?
Yes, going on the pill does make some women's periods lighter and/or less painful, but that's just a side effect and varies from woman to woman. If it makes your periods really uncomfortable, mention it to your doctor and he or she can give you a different type of pill to try.

I think it's just strange that there are 18-year-old girls that don't know the basics about contraception. I don't mean this thread specifically, I've seen others just like this before. Don't you have any sex education at school in UK
I don't mean to discourage people from asking "stupid" questions. Of course it is always good to ask if you don't know something, especially when it concerns sex. And the parents and teachers of the asker should be more ashamed of the lack of knowledge than the asker herself.

If you take the pill continuously, it will stop your period, but it's not recommended. Plenty of women run three packs together so they only have a period once every ten weeks though.

But perhaps some schools don't teach it as well??
