See your doctor.Was the patch giving you side effects?From what I understand,the patch works very much like the pill, the week you are not using the patch,you will get your period.If you are not using an alternate form of birth control, you can become pregnant.See your doc to discuss another form of birth control,if you feel that the patch was not right for you.Good luck.Patty
