I have been on the ortho evra patch for about a year now..And latley I have been noticing a rash when I change the patch..It itches really bad and sometimes when I remove the patch it will almost tear my skin!! It hurts really bad..So I was thinking about trying some type of pill instead..Im not sure which pill to take b.C I know there are like a million of them..I am sexually active and have extreemly bad periods...I dont want anything to totaly stop my period (b.C thats jus weird)..I jus want something that will help my periods and also be 99% effective against pregnancy..If anyone can help me please contact me!! Thank u soo much!
