Q: Period While On the Patch..should I Remove It?
asked by: belle9 on November 28th, 2004

I've been using ortho evra for about a year now, and have been regulating my period to come every 10 weeks or so. This time around, I got my period in the beginning of the 5th week. Question is do I remove the patch i'm wearing now, or keep it on? If I keep it on, do I put a new one on when this one comes off, or should I be without a patch for a week?

Thanks...

Belle
