It's not unusual to have unscheduled bleeding in the first three months of use of the Birth Control patch. After that, bleeding with the patch on is unusual, but doesn't mean that the patch isn't working as long as you've been using it correctly. If this bleeding recurs, see your health care provider for an exam.
After you have atleast one normal period.
Yes. This is caused by coming off the patch. Its a withdrawal bleed.
Yes. The patch was moderating your hormones, and removing the patch disrupted the hormone levels. One possible response of your body was a period. The other possible response was ovulation (dropping an egg - becoming fertile).
Yes it will work and yes it will stop your period from coming.I've done it many times.When you do decide to take it off you will have your period as if you would normally taking it off every 4th week.I've done it stopping my period up to 2 months,but sooner or later your period will come even if you keep putting the patch on if you putit off for too long.
You will find that your period is lighter when you are on the pill (or patch or injections).
Yes, if you start the patch late, your period is likely to be later than you expected. Be sure to take a pregnancy test if you had sex without a condom during that two week delay or the week after.
put the patch on the Sunday after you start your period
Its actually very normal, along with other symptoms i took the pill and I'm on the patch now and it still happens. and some people actually have there spotting flow like there normal period.
If this is unusual for you then see your Dr for a pregnancy blood test.
Of course it's diffrent for everyone. The first time I used the patch my first period on the patch lasted almost 2 weeks, and my doctor said that was nothing to be worried about. But after going off and back on the patch my first period on the patch was nonexistant, which my doctor also said was normal. So it all depends on your body, and how it reacts and how much time it needs to ajust to this bombardment of hormoines.
u will most likely to get your period while on the patch which is not good for u.
Maintain your patch change day irrespective of when your period begins and ends during your 'patch free' week. For example, if your patch change day is a Saturday and during the 'patch free' week happen to continue bleeding on the Saturday of that week, still restart the patch on that day.
