Re: Birth control discussion (again): The Patch?

[(Anonymous)]

Been on it for 7 years. No problems. I wear it on my belly and the only issue I've ever had is the adhesive sticking to my undies on the first day, and tending to leave a sort of "ring" around the patch. (Which I don't care about at all.) Never been on the Pill, but AIUI, the patch is pretty much the same in terms of hormones and side effects. (So the same caveats apply: avoid smoking, increased risk of clotting, etc.) Never had any problems with it falling off or even coming unstuck. Super easy to remember, especially since if you don't remember the morning of your patch change day, you can change it later and it doesn't really matter. (Plus, on all weeks except your "off" week, you have the physical patch to remind you - although first patch of the month is the most important.)

AFAIK (this was true when I started and I haven't looked into it since) there's only one brand, so if you have to change your dosage for some reason (increasing progesterin, for instance) then the patch wouldn't be an option. It also wasn't covered by my insurance plan when I started, but that's changed and I think most plans cover it now. I was paying about $20/ month.

"you can change it later" should read "you can change it later that day." The insert tells you what to do if you miss a patch, and whether you will require backup contraception that week or not. IIRC, if you're within 24 hours, you're safe.
