Some serious nausea about 4 days out of the week, unable to eat enough on these days. It does the job, and I've only ever had a patch fall off once. Period is shorter and lighter.

The flow is heavier than I've ever experienced to the point where I'm changing my tampon almost hourly. On top of that, my cramps are through the roof. Midol doesn't help and neither does extra strength ibuprofen, Advil, aspirin . The patch is itchy and every week when I removed my patch, my skin under and around the patch is red, bumpy, and burnt. Also just today when I removed my patch I noticed that around where the edges of the patch were my skin is yellow.

Birth Control Patch - Ortho Evra. Table Of Contents. What is a Birth Control Patch? Birth Control Patch is commonly known as Ortho Evra (or Evra patch). The beige patch sticks onto the skin to help prevent pregnancy. The patch is applied to the skin once a week for three weeks straight. If you are currently used the Ortho Evra patch, please consultant a doctor or nurse to switch you to the Xulane patch. Another effective method similar to the patch is the ring or birth control pill which releases. These hormones are chemicals that control different parts of the body. What Are the Benefits Of the Patch? The benefits of the patch may help protect against: Irregular/heavy periods. Acne. Headaches/depressions. Pelvic inflammatory disease. Iron deficiency. Bone thinning. Menstrual craps. Breasts growths (not cancer)Cysts located in breasts and ovaries. Infection found in the uterus, tubes and ovaries. Ovarian and endometrial cancers. Ectopic pregnancy. What Are the Disadvantages of the Patch? Considering the patch has the same side effects as the Birth Control Pill, it may carry the same disadvantages. Some women may experience some undesirable side effects from using the patch but most women adjust to the patch within a few months of using it. The most common side effects include: vomiting and nauseatender breastsbleeding between periods. Additionally it’s possible that the patch may cause a woman’s sexual desire to decrease over time because the patch affects a woman’s hormones. The skin may also become irritated or have a reaction to where the patch is placed on the skin. Once a woman stops using the patch it can take one or two months for the period cycle to get back to normal. More serious side effects have warning signs. This is because it allows correct release. More serious side effects of the patch are rare and might be caused with certain conditions. Contact a doctor or nurse for more information. It’s a simple as that, but make sure the patch doesn’t fall off and don’t forget to change it after the seven days. The first day that you apply the patch is considered your “patch day.” This day determines when you will be changing your patch. For further information, look at the instructions in the box of the patches. If you are still bleeding when your new patch day comes around, this is considered normal, just apply a new patch or pregnancy can occur.
