Contaceptive Patches

[Smurfgirl]

I am supposed to start using these today...reluctantly going off the pill due to change in circumstances and the nurse said the patch is just the same.

Any experiences of it?

sorry can't help (my Dr. won't prescribe them for me "too expensive" is our HA rules ). I know someone (can't remember who) was posting about them just the other day, so I'm sure someone will be along soon that can help

They are really good, just stick them on and forget about them. No side effects apart from I did feel queasy for the first few days.

I put my 1st one on yesterday and made sure it was on well round the edges but it's gone all crinkly and are they supposed to be papery on the outside??
