Question About Ortro Patch Posted: 08-31-05 14:03pm
I have a question for anyone who has been
using the patch for sometime. If you want
to skip your period, can you just continue
taking the patch the sunday that you are
to remove it ? Does this make sense?
Another words your three weeks worth of
patches are up on sunday, but you want to
skip your period the next week can you in
fact start another series of three week
patches and have it be okay?

Skipping Periods Posted: 09-14-05 00:02am
Yes, it is ok to do that. I have been on
the patch for close to three years and I
have always gone six weeks and then had my
period. Check with your doctor to make
sure, but my doctor said it was fine for
me to do.
