birth control
"I've been on the patch now for about a year with little to no complaints. My periods are mild only lasting 5 days and I've not had any of the ill effects like some women. I've only had it become unsticky once (I was swimming multiple times a day) and the lack of ability to get a spare messed up my entire cycle. The one thing I don't like about these patches are how much removal hurts! When I rake the patch off I'm pretty sure it takes a good few layers of skin with it too!! Other than that, it does the job. I don't have to worry about taking a pill everyday and my cycle is normal, not to mention I'm not a mother!!"
