i am about to start the patch, and I
wanted to know what everyone thought of
the patch or the pill. I am new to the
ehealth forum so any help you could give
me would be fantastic. Thanks! :)

alot safer to me.

I Used the Patch - Went Back to the Pill Posted: 01-25-05 22:34pm
I personally didn't like the patch. It
looks like a dirty bandaid by the end of
the week. I also know two people who got
pregnant after switching to the patch.
If you prefer something you don't have to
remember to take. Ask your doctor about
the nuva ring. My new insurance doesn't
cover it, so i'm taking the pill now, but
my favorite birth control so far is the
nuva ring by far.

I prefer the pill over the patch because I
was on the patch for a few months and it
left red marks, looked dirty after a few
days and it fell of if you were in water
for an extended period of time.
