No problems with the patch

I been on the patch for about 4 months and I like it. I have shorter and lighter periods. I don'thave to worry about taking the pill every nite. I have a little pain with my breasts but no nausea. I like it better than the pill.I hope that they don't do away with it.

No problem with the Patch so far

I have been on the patch for a year and a half now. I am also a flight attendant which is a job that is subject to the risk of blood clots.

No problems here. I do yoga after every flight to stretch out the body...i feel this helps.

No side effects here.

I think you need to fully research any birth control before using it.

Hope this is helpful

the patch...GREAT!

I was on it for about 3 yrs. I had no problems what so ever. No breast pain, no nausea, no long heavy periods. In fact they were shorter and lighter. This was the best birth control I've ever taken. I couldn't remember to take a pill every single day! My only problem now is that the places that I used to get them from no longer carry them. But is there REALLY that much of a higher risk using the patch than the pill! Even though the pill poses the SAME risks!

BURNING!!!

All I can say is that it eats at my skin. I am sure it isnt "good looking" when I am in my bathing suit but to me, personally speaking....the goal is to not have kids and I am good to go for that. Side effects are going to happen but when you put things into your body that were not there are going to give your body issues. I strongly believe in working out and eating healthy and you will be fine.

i had the same problem with my breast

The Patch Should be Pulled

It is too dangerous! My sister, age 25, died 4 years ago from the birth control patch after suffering a massive blood clot in her brain. She was on the patch for only 2 weeks!

She left behind 3 young children.

She had suffered headaches on the pill and would never have tried the patch if she knew the risks were twice as high!

There are plenty of birth control products on the market. Why take the chance on products that mess with your hormones? Doctors do not truly understand the effects of these drugs on women. They say the risk is acceptable. But if something happened to you or your loved one, would that be acceptable?

the patch

I used the patch for about a year and a half and I experienced severe pain in my breast, which terrified me at 22 years old. I went to the doctor several times they ran test and found nothing. I decided on a second opinon and still nothing was found. I know it was the patch because as soon as I stopped taking it my pains soon went away. The should take it off the market, its obviously unsafe.

Should the Birth Control Patch Be Pulled...Hell NO

I have been on the patch for sometime..ummm for about 4/5 years. I am also a gastric bypass patient and I am unable to take the pill. Yes there are alternative methods but also who wants to gain weight once you been through alot to try and keep it off.

I say if works for you stick with it. I haven't had any problems in the corse of use. I would say though if it very risky and absene deaths occur then sure lets try to improve on what went wrong. IF laundry detergants are always being new and improved what about our health and birth rates to keep low cost of insurances.HA!

ocps

desogestrel is a progestin not an estrogen. All pills on the market have the same estrogen. I don't think the patch increases estrogen 60x more than pills- the absorption is diffenret that is all.
