Morning!

so my peri menopausal brain has just realised I’ve been doing my patches wrong 😭
I started 2 weeks ago on the first day of my period and it’s just dawned on me this morning that I’ve done 2 patches of 50 and then 2 of conti!
will I go into some kind of crazy hormonal meltdown?
I’ve taken it off now and plan to just re start again when my period starts again. Not sure if this is what’s best to do thought.
any advice would be really appreciated (and anyone who has done the same please fess up to make me feel less of an idiot!)

I wouldn't worry to much. Honestly I found it confusing at first. Just start again. Hope it works well for you. It did for me. 💐

I have 4 patches at 50 and 4 conti a month. The 50 first, that's what it says on my prescription on the box.
Do you mean you should be doing conti first? What does it say on your prescription?

Thank you both for your replies. Stopping the patches started my period so I’ve started again 😆
what I had done was one week of the 50 and then one week of the conti! Instead of two weeks then two weeks.
Ive only kept the 50 patches out this time so I can’t much it up! It made me feel really rubbish for a few days .
