I've been on the patch for about 6 months. Everything has been fine until this month. I'm on my second patch of the package- so I recently menstrated. And now all of the sudden i'm bleeding, like a reg. Period. Is this normal or is something going wrong?

Sounds very similar to me......Were you late putting your patch on?
It is kinda freaky when something like that happens as I too have gone 6 months with no problems and now I dont know what to think as I have been bleeding for 2 weeks and my period wasnt due till this week.

Birth Control

Hi everyone! My mom wants me to start taking birth control. Not because she thinks i'm going to get pregnant but because I have epilepsy and am on medication and still have seizures. The birth control pill s could help control them, but i'm worried about gainging weight. What do you think I should do, take the pills or not take the pills?
