There is no medical concept of birth control pill rejection, but some women may have changes in their periods on one birth control pill that they don't like. Changing to another brand may help. My friend has been switching back and forth between the b.c. that makes you have periods every three months and Ortho and her last period lasted twelve days with lots of cramps. Her doctor recently had her take two regular pills of Ortho for four days.. then her bleeding stopped and he adviced her to stay with Ortho!
The Ortho evra birth control patch is a single patch placed on your hip, butt, arm or stomach once per week, for three weeks. The fourth week you don't put a patch on, this week is for your period.
