Can you get pregnant on the first week after you take the patch off for one week?

You only had unprotected sex if you didn't use a patch. The patch use means you did not have unprotected sex, therefore if you always use the patch as directed the chance of pregnancy is very tiny.

∙ 10y agoIf you started your next cycle of patches on time after the patch-free week, you have immediate protection. If you started late, use a backup method until you've used the patch correctly for seven days.

You used the patch correctly last month, applying a new patch weekly for three weeks.
You removed the third patch for one week and had vaginal bleeding as expected.
You put on the first patch of the second cycle on time.
You had sex without a condom after starting the second cycle.
If that's true, you have used the patch correctly, and the risk of pregnancy is low. No method eliminates the risk, but you've picked a highly reliable method, and it sounds like you've used it right.

Can you get pregnant if you leave the patch on without taking it off for 6 weeks?
The patch has to be changed each week. You can change the patch weekly for six weeks, without a week off, if you like. If you do that, there's no additional risk of pregnancy. If you leave the same patch on for six weeks, you could get pregnant.

When do you start your birth control patch?
WHEN TO START If this is the first time you are using ORTHO EVRA, wait until the day you get your menstrual period. The day you apply your patch will be Day 1. Your "Patch Change Day" will be on this day every week. You may choose a "First Day Start" or a "Sunday Start" as defined below: First Day Start: Apply your first patch during the first 24 hours of your period, which will be considered your "Patch Change Day." If the Patch is not applied within the first 24 hours of your period, you must use back-up contraception, such as a condom, spermicide or a diaphragm, for the first week of patch use. Sunday Start: Apply your first patch on the first Sunday after your menstrual period starts
What are chances of getting pregnant if you remove your patch on day 6 before patch free week?
Your risk of pregnancy isn't increased on Day 6 before the patch free week if you remove the patch that day. Just be sure to have no more than a seven-day break before putting on the next patch, or you could be at risk of pregnancy in that week.
