| 5 | Birth control | Weakness for first 24 hours of putting patch on | 24 | 8 years | 1/28/2012 | 5 | birth control | 1X day | 5/16/2015 | 4 | | 12/17/2005 | 3 | | 12/27/2005 | 1 | Birth control | Shortness of breath , tight chest , palpitations . | 1 months | 2/2/2013 | 1 | preventing pregnancy | Sever head aches, nausea, lack of libido, Sensitive on smell | On my third week of using evra pat church I had a horrible head ache that didn't get better with pain killers. I took the patch off. After taking the patch off on the 2nd week without the patch I was on my way to work when I nearly passport and hubby took me to hospital suffering shortness of breat hand pains | 39 | 1 days 1 patch we | 3/31/2016 | 5 | Pregnancy prevention | Breast tenderness occasionally. Breast growth. No migraines. No mood swings. Shorter, lighter almost pain free periods. | I highly recommend Evra. It's initially tricky to find the place on your body which best suits. It was a saving grace for me with period pain. I had to get a prescription of strong painkillers for my doctor each month as I wasn't able to move with pains. I usually take mild painkillers now only on day 2. Periods last 4 days, pain-free day 1,3,4. No weight gain but get odd cravings from time to time (particularly pickled foods). Breast tenderness is hard on it. Only fault, it's very infrequent but when it comes my boobs are unbelievably painful. Hasn't once fallen off either. | F | 19 | 8 months | 4/21/2016 | 5 | Contraception, acne | Increased libido Less acne Increased mood Stable period | F | 19 | 5 months 1 patch | 5/5/2016 | 5 | Birth Control | increased vaginal lubrication noted | F | 32 | 3 years 1X W | 2/7/2016 | 5 | Contraception | No side effects, period is regular and a lot less heavier. This is a lifesaver compared to other/no contraception as I was always bleeding and my 'period' was extremely heavy | F | 18 | 2 years | 11/22/2016 | 5 | Contraception & Medical reasons. | None, some of what they say are side effects I normally have like migraines, acne, and low mood. With the patch, they all go away. | I love it, truly. I use the patch to control my period which is naturally heavy and painful, to help with CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome), and clears up my acne (face & back). I think it works so agreeably with me because I don't smoke, I have a healthy lifestyle/ BMI, and I'm within the appropriate age range for the patch. All so sometimes birth controls don't work for you just because. It is okay to find your fit and have an open honest conversation with your Obgyn. | F | 28 | 2 years 6.60 mg 3X M | 10/12/2020 | 5 | Birth control | No negative side effects except for some itching where I put the patch. Positive side effects: No more acne, shorter and lighter period (3 instead of 7+ days), almost no cramps anymore. | No change in mood swings or in sex drive since I started using the patch. Overall extremely happy with it and especially great when you are a person who keeps on forgetting to take the pill. | F | 33 | 2 years 1X W | 6/17/2022 | 5 | Prevent pregnancy | Lighter period, some period clotting, headaches, Minor skin irritation | I completely 100% love my birth control my only complaint is that I wish they where more water proof for the pool, or bathing. I LOVE how easy it is to just remember to change it one day. | F | 18 | 2 years | 10/28/2015 | 5 | PREVENT PREGNANCY! | NO SIDE EFFECTS I MISS YOU ORTHO EVRA BEST BIRTH CONTROL EVER YALL FOKE CAN GET OVER SOME SPOTTING ALL BIRTH CONTROL HAVE SIDE EFFECT THAT HOW YOU KNOW ITS WORKING .... #BRINGBACKORTHOEVRA !!!!

This is the only thing I have ever use for birth control. I was pertty happy with the patch because I thought my side effects were due to other things. I started to put attention to my body and now after 4 years on the patch I am realizing that all my side effect are due to this patch. I am definitely leaving the patch, this is my last month I'll use it. Now that I know all my symptoms are related to the patch I DO NOT RECOMENDED.
