Can I just stop taking the pill, have my period, and start my new pack in one week, after my period?

Yes, it is possible to stop taking the pill, have your period, and start your pills again 1 week later, after your period. Just make sure you have taken the contraceptive for at least 21 consecutive days without missing any doses before taking a break, and that the break does not exceed 7 days.
