pill break

so i normally take the pill back to back but i changed onto yasmin and i keep getting spotting the week before the end of my pack. so i want to take a break but i'm 2 weeks into a 3 week pack, and if i stop next week i'll have my period at reading..

so because i've been taking back to back could i stop today and be fine? thus having my period this week (i don't want to take another back to back cause i just end up with the bad spotting which started again today, after only finishing a fortnight ago)

If you've taken 21+ pills correctly then you should be fine to have your break.
