What should I do if Ive already started the Evra patch but my period isn't due for a few days?
Use a backup method of Birth Control, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, for the first seven days of patch use. Continue using the patch on schedule regardless of any bleeding, changing it weekly. During the fourth week, wear no patch.

This is called break through bleeding, it happens to some women when they first begin using any hormonal BC but should stop over the the next 2 cycles. Continue to use the patch as directed.

The day you get your period you put the birth conrol patch on?
put the patch on the Sunday after you start your period
Do you still have a period while on the patch?
No, you don't want to wear the patch during mestruation. However if this is your first time using this method of birth control and you chose to do a "Sunday start" then you will apply the patch on the first Sunday after you have started menstruating. This is ok if you are still "bleeding" because your body will eventually even its cycle out. Your doctor should be able to help answer any other questions or go to: www.orthoevra.com
