I would skip the sugar pills and skip having your period with your platelets so low. My period can get very heavy and my platelets have only gone as low as 60. My doctor said it's ok to skip your period, but you should have your period at least four times a year to avoid too much build up in your uterus. So I'd say wait maybe two or three months, then have your period. When I wait that long it's more 'solid' so to say and controlled, rather than before when I would bleed through my clothes because of low platelets.

Hope this helps you.
