Anyone here on the patch? Just want to know what kind of side effects there are. I think it's also pretty convenient because you don't have to take a pill everyday and worry about a missed pill. Any comments or suggestions?Thanks!

Patch

I did the patch for a month. It was very convenient and I loved it,but....wherever i put the patch it would leave a scar/mark. Also my sister use them and she said that she shaves the spot that she decide to put the patch on and that has worked for her. I decided to go back to the pill, the seasonale's 4 periods a year.

I just started using it now. It's pretty easy to do, but I'm so worried that it will peel off like when I take a shower or exercise. So, I'm constantly looking at it (lol)It shouldn't peel off at all even under those conditions, right? I read the leaflet and it says to use another form of birth control during the first week. So, after the first week of using it for the first time I don't have to worry about using other forms of protection?

If that's what the leaflet said then follow that. Don't worry about it falling off. One of my good friends ending up switching to the pill because the patch was horrible taking off at the end of the week and left bad marks.

I was just wondering if I'm supposed to change the patch at the same TIME on my Patch Change Day...I'm thinking about doing it at the same time, but the leaflet just said to change it on the same day of the week every week so I was wondering if the time really matters (like with pills).
