Just a Little Question...but I Need Help
Posted: 02-22-05 15:56pm

I just started taking the patch and I took it the first day of my period. I was just wondering if my period was supposed to stop or finish or what?? Im confused cuz I dont know what is supposed to happen. Also I got them from they gyno but the box said sample not to be sold...I dont know if it just says that or if I really shouldnt use them....Help!

I've been on the patch since june and don't mind it. I doubt you would see any change in your period. When I asked about it my doctor gave me the sample kit & it's exactly what you'd get from the pharmacy. Nothing wrong with using it... Drug reps bring in samples to give to patient's all the time - I work for a gyn & we have samples up the ying yang!!

:) it's ok to use them. They mean that they give samples to doctors to give to patients and they're not suspossed to sell them. Your period should finish normally like always. I've been on the patch for a year and I love it. I could never remember to take the pill everyday. Hope that helps!
