Hi
i'm on vacatgion and i've been on the
patch for about 2 weeks now. The problem
is I never stopped bleeding. Its not like
my period I guess its breakthrough
bleeding beacuase of the estrogen in the
patch, its lighter I just wear
pantyliners, but its really starting to
bother me. Its also starting to ruin my
sexlife since I hate doing it while i'm
bleeding and now it never stops. Please,
anyone whose had this happen to her tell
me about it, did it just go away? What
did your doctor say? I'm really far from
home right now and will stay here for a
couple of weeks more so its impossible to
see my doctor now. Thanks :)

Yup sounds fimilair...For the first three
weeks I bled and bled..Then when it came
time to take the patch off for my period
not only did I not get a period but I
stopped spotting.Next monday will be my
off week and im praying for a period!!!!So
it took about 3 weeks for the spotting to
stop but I never even got a period which
is think iis a bit odd...

So youve beeen on the patch for almost two
montsh right? And the second month no
spotting? So good to hear that, if this

to another kind of contraception! Tell me

One Month Later And My Period Posted: 09-10-05 20:11pm
I started on the patch 7 weeks ago, i'm
supposed to take it off today and get my 2
period but tomorrow's my birthday and I
dont wanna get my period just yet. Do you
get it instantly after taking it off, that
day later on or a couple of days later?
I'm asking this because last time I never
stopped spotting and my period was just a
gradual increase of that until it stopped
so I wanna know if im gonna get it the
second I remove it or something.
Can I just leave it on for another day so
I dont get my period during my birthday?
I also know that u cant get pregnant if
the patch falls or something and you
replace it before 48 hours so this means
it keeps acting... Will that mean i'll
get my period 48 hours after I remove it?

I always get my period about 3 days after
I take the patch off.
