Answers:
Don't stop taking your pills. They are designed to regulate your periods as well as being a contraceptive. You'll begin to get on a regular schedule starting next month. If you miss your pills you will have to start all over again. And there is a high probability you will get pregnant if you have sex, since they also have the benefit of making you more fertile.
Congratulations to you on being a responsible person.

people do things like that all the time.
If it's the week after you take your sugar pills then you wouldn't be on your period anyway. You get your period the week you take the low-dose or sugar pills (depnding on the brand)
You don't have to take the sugar pills while you are on your period for that week, BUT you have to start your new pack right after those, or you will be skipping a week without any protection .
