What else can I help you with?
Is a NicoDerm CQ patch still good if it is expired?
No.
Is the birth control patch still effective if a piece of hair is stuck on it?
Yes, just as the birth control patch is still effective if applied to a spot (like the arm or leg) with hair, the patch is effective if a hair is stuck to it.
Can you get a hysterectomy when you are still on Depo-Provera?
Yes, you can get a hysterectomy while Depo Provera is still in effect.
Is the patch still as effective if it is applied on the mid-back area?
yes but at the top of the back,
Is the Birth control patch still effective if it's wrinkled?
Yes, the birth control patch can still be effective if it is wrinkled, as long as it is properly adhered to the skin and not peeling off. The key is to ensure that the patch maintains good contact with the skin to allow for hormone absorption. However, if the wrinkles cause the patch to lift at the edges or if it becomes completely detached, its effectiveness may be compromised. In such cases, it’s best to replace the patch with a new one.
Can you wear nicotine patches in the shower?
I think so
Does the birth control patch work during your period?
If you use it correctly for at least one week, the birth control patch is effective even if you're bleeding. You still have protection during the patch-free week if you used the patch correctly in the previous weeks.
I have had one Depo Provera shot. I got it in 1008 and its 1208. I have been having unprotected sex for the whole time i have been on it. Is there a possibility I can still get pregnant?
Yes. Depo takes 30 days or so to become effective and is not 100% effective in any case. No birth control is 100% effective.
Are you protected against pregnancy the day before Depo-Provera is due?
You still have the same protection the day before depo provera is due. Some women have bleeding just before the shot is due, but they are still protected.
If you use the patch and take the pill can you still get prego?
If the patch is not the nicotine patch and the pill is not aspirin, no.
Can you take microgynon while on Depo-Provera injection?
Yes. Sometimes doctors will even prescribe you the Microgynon whilst on the Depo Provera, to help and settle side effects of the Depo such as prolonged bleeding. The Microgynon helps to reset your period while on the Depo. Results are usually effective but not in every case. If you are still experiencing prolonged bleeding after this contact your GP for alternative options.
What birth control is just as effective as the Depo-Provera shot but doesnt involve a needle?
The IUD and the contraceptive implant are both more effective than Depo Provera. The contraceptive implant still involves a needle, but you only get that needle once every three years. There is no needle involved in insertion of the IUD in the majority of cases, and if you felt strongly about no needles, you'd just need to let your health care provider know, and none would be required for the IUD.
