 4  contraception I ve been using orth evra on and off for7 years in a period of 10years,it did the job although it did give me spotting a couple of times I tried some birth control pills too but this patch didn't make me depressed or extremely moody like those.I usually eat pretty good,my tryglicerides are very low and I'm not overweight,maybe that s why I never had really a problem with it compared to many other people F 27 7 years

 3  i have 2 kids When i used this as a teen heavy bleeding, nausea/vomiting, severe dizziness. Stopped it 2 weeks in. Since ive started again: mild weight gain, more aura with the migraines i have (prior to this) , rash on application site that doesnt go away , itching and redness on application site, some mood swings, slight breast tenderness/enlargement, fatigue, mild nausea. Better the 2nd time than the first. Hungry almost all the time but not sure this is related. F 29 4 months

 2  Contraception Unfortunately the sharp increase in estrogen triggered recurrent yeast infections for which I had to take 3 doses of fluconazole in 1 week. My doc says it can happen if you are prone to them anyway. As soon as removed the patch and took the last thrush treatment I experienced relief. F 31 16 days

 1  To enjoy intercourse without condom Non-stop heavy bleeding, mood swings , breast engorgment, fatigue, static tension, severe weight loss, and the list goes on I've been on the ortho evra patch for about 6 weeks now... The first 3 weeks were fine.. but after those I've been gushing blood continuously this is not normal ... It's not a small leakage like everyone is talking about. I can't find anyone with the same symptoms .. am I the only 1 in this?? I stopped using it 3 days ago and I'm still bleeding heavily down there.. I'm tired of this.. any help?? F 21 6 weeks

 1  Birth Control I experienced nausea, enlargement of my breasts, an unusal bodily warmth and dizziness the first few days I was taking it. On the 5th day, I ended up fainting from this drug and knew to immediately take this patch off. I also experienced the leg and arm pain that other patients have mentioned. Now I'm unsure if I am able to take another form of birth control such as the pill, as well as fearful because of what happened. F 18 5 days

 5  Periods, birth control Only side effect is sore breasts. I love it. It works well and I don't have to worry about forgetting a pill. It helps keep my period on track also, before I started taking it I would have a period like once on a blue moon but now i can expect it on time F 17 4 days

 1  start my periods off after mc Migranes , nausea, abdominal pain i put my first ever patch on as i suffered a mc at the beginning of the month and wanted my periods back earlier to determine when im ovulating to ensure i dont have sex then. I put my patch on about 11 this morning it is now half 9 at night and im lieing in bed crying at how sick i feel and how much of a bad head i have. My boyfriend is even peed off as now the slightest move he is making im ready to slap him one. Fair to say id rather just wait for my periods to come back and ive just ripped my patch of. F 16 1 days

 3  contraceptive Good: peace of mind, slight breast enlargement Bad: itches, leaves a ring sort of even after removing and cleaning (I have a scar on the left side of my tummy because it), when it's on the butt, sometimes it will try to roll,& stick to my underwear when rolling, lint ring (embarrassing) because of that I wouldn't even want to have sex. I'm very moody, bad headaches F 17 10 months

 2  help regulate periods I was on the patch a few years ago for about two years. Then I started to bleed for two weeks and it was heavy I had to go to the emergency room. They couldn't find anything wrong with me. I got off the patch and last year I got back on it. It was good at first other than the mood swings and for awhile I did have a sex drive but not anymore. My periods were what they were suppose to be. 2 weeks ago I had my period after that I put on a new patch which was a different brand and smaller. When I switched after one week it was burning where I usually wear it. I started to spot which is kinda normal I decieded to take the patch off on Tuesday of last week. I have been bleeding off and on since last week. This is my last time with the patch. F 28 3 years

 4  lighter periods, prevent pregnancy. the patch was fine through the first 5 weeks, at the patch off week my period came as scheduled and I liked the predictability. now it's the 3rd week of the second box and I'm experiencing horrible nausea, random migraines, some vomiting, slight depression. I'll get really hungry but never satisfied, everything tastes horrible now and once I eat stomach pains come.. I've become extremely emotional just breaking out crying because of all this nausea. I'm hoping my body will get used to the hormones and the bad side effects will stop or at least slow down. the only good thing is I know when my period come, it's light, no cramps, when I'm around my boyfriend my sex drive is good, and of course pregnancy prevention. just glad I'm not alone:( was starting to lose my mind. F 17 2 months
