May be too early to test. Just wait a few
more days and test again or speak to your
doctor.
I've been doing a side effect's search on
the patch for you and it doesn't not a
missed period as one. However it does
stress the importance o9f using condoms
for the first week if you have a sunday
start as you will not be protected
missed periods
missing a period does not necessarily mean
you are pregnant. However, if you miss a
period, you may want to consider the
likelihood of pregnancy and take a
pregnancy test. Pregnancy is more likely
if a patch fell off for longer than 24
hours or if you missed a patch change
during the cycle. If you are pregnant,
discontinue use of the contraceptive
patch.
Sunday start: apply your first patch on
the first sunday after your menstrual
period starts—this will be your "patch
change day." you must use backup
contraception, such as a condom,
spermicide or a diaphragm, for the first
week of your first cycle.
The patch works best when it is changed on
the same day of the week for three weeks
in a row. Pregnancy can happen if an
error is made in using the patch —
especially if
it becomes loose or falls off for more
than 24 hours
the same patch is left on the skin for
more than one week
if either of these things happens, follow
the directions in your package insert, and
call your clinician.
You should wait a few more days and test
again. You are at great risk of pregnany
it would seem but maybe you are lucky and
you aren't
good luck!
