EVRA- Patches-where to put them where they stay!

[dropinthe]

I don't like these bloody patches-the only place I want to put them is on my back where they keep rubbing on my clothes and peeling off where I'm so fat!
Any suggestions?

Anyone?
I keep wasting them and I only got nine patches-have about five left and I just want to know where is best to put them. On the leg?

lucky cow - my Dr. won't let me have them, says I should have the injection (phobia of needles) or the coil (vaginismus and coils do NOT go together).

(actual reason is because they're 'expensive' so should only be prescribed to those patients who are unable to use other forms of contraception) grrr

Sorry no advice - just a rant

LOL-they are bloody usless in my oppinion!

better than no protection at all - which is what we've currently got (not that it matters as nothing ever happens.....but you never know )

That was us for the past 5 years! LOL! Nothing ever happens until the 2 times you did and BOSH you've got 2 sons!!!

Even then,DH calls it immacualte conceptions!

Just call me Mary!

I was on the pill - but kept forgetting to take it - well it didn't matter anyhow as nothing was likely to happen what with the vag.....then one night - 14 days into my cycle (as I reliased when I went to the toilet afterwards and walked past the calendar)...my first words to DH when I returned from the bathroom was "OMG I hope I'm not pregnant".......and I was (with DS2)

It's now firmly stuck to my ARSE!

PMSL

(still jealous of the fact you've been prescribed them and my dr.s won't )

I put mine on the front, under my tummy so under my pants - never had any issues there. I used the patch for 9 years, loved it - TTC now so not using. it's the only thing which worked for me! I just wish the bugger was out of my system so I could get my BFP!
