Hey all,
im curious to know if anyone has gotten
pregnant while on ortho evra. I've been
on for 6 months, and have just started to
develop really sore nipples and lowe
abdominal cramps.... Just slightly
curious if its a possibility (ok, I know
its possible) but anyways.
Thanks,
day

Here's a reply for you... There's always
a possibility to get pregnant with any
kind of birth control, because nothing is
100% effective. The possibilities are
smaller if you're using your stuff 100%
correctly 100% of the time, but it's still
there. How's that?

Lol thats great. Something I already
knew, but hey, at least someone
responded...  I was just
curious about the patch in particular. I
know a lot of women on here have had some
issues with iud's and such, and wanted to
see if anyone had 'patch' experiences.
Since the patch is kinda tricky sometimes,
with questions like 'how much of the
little edges can be loose and it still be
affective?' etc... The pill is just one
pop, and have to be concerned about
vomiting and diaharrea.... But with the
patch you have to be careful that its
still stuck, not pulling up anywhere
etc...And difficult to estimate how long
its been loose when you finally find it.
I assume women have had problems like
that...Just trying to find some. =)

Haha, wish I could help more, but I am
clueless about the patch... Maybe try
online at orthoevra.Com (if that even
exists... I dont know!)

I used to be on the patch and I didint
like. Because even if a little corner
comes off its less effective and I would
always be scared until my next period. I
also heard that it is the number one birth
control that causes blood clots.

I am in the same sit. I have been on the
patch for 3 yrs now and all of a sudden
have really sore breasts and mild cramps
along with being hungry all the time then
when I find something that looks good
after I make it I take 2 bites and want to
throw up! I do have one daughter so I
have been preg before ( she's 3 ) but I
don"t know if I am again! Please e-mail
me if you are....We'll see how good this
patch thing is

Well I still have the sore breasts, i've
been sick for the last 3 days (sore
throat, stuffy nose)...So I cant really
judge the crampiness anymore (cuz I feel
achey everywhere) I dont have my patch
off week until friday 26th, so I guess
we'll see if I get my period. I will
keep you updated. My body tries and
messes with my mind all the time though.
Grrrrrr

Well took my patch off on the 26th....Its
the evening of the 28th and nothing yet.
Which is ok for me right now...Im usually
about a 3 day later kind of girl...So
we're just waiting it out. Things will
definitely turn upside down if im
pregnant,,,but not much I can do about it
now. I'll update ya later in the week on
what happens.

Ortho Evera Patch

Hi
I am a person that takes birth control
faithfully and i thought i would try the
ortho evera patch and i was doing good for
about 9 months while i was with my
boyfriend and it did fine for those nine
months and right about the time we split
up I got pregnant 2 months before that and
didn't know but the thing is i used it
correctly and everything and i also know a
few other females that also did the same
thing so i highly do not recommend the
patch unless you are not having sex and
just using it to regulate your periods.
