Pregnant On Week Off of Bc? Posted: 04-04-05 19:00pm
Ok so heres the story. I'm on orthoevra
the birth control patch. This is my week
off so I started to get my period today
while I was having sex which is really
weird but yea, anyways, the condom broke
and im paranoid that I could be preg. Is
there anyway? Does the orthoevra still
work as birthcontrol on the week off?

The only way that you could get pregnant
is if this is your first month taking the
pill or you dont take your pill regularly.
Now I know that you may miss 1 or 2 times
but if you frequently forget to take your
pill then it may not work. Other than
that I think you are safe.

I did the patch at first and my doctor
explained to me that if you apply every
patch and do it right ....(not take them
off to soon and change them out when your
suppose to) then the week that you are off
you are fine ....The only reason that I
stopped doing the patch is because it
started making my skin peal and it made
scars every time I took them off...But
your probably not pregnant ...Just take a
hpt just to make you feel a little
better....
