Birth Control
"I&#039;ve been on the patch for 4 years. It was the first contraceptive I went on. I love it, my periods came almost the same time each month. I did not notice any changes maybe just a pimple or two on my third patch. I&#039;m very young so I blame my 10 pounds of weight gain on my body changing over the years. I did have to switch birth controls because my parents did not approve. So I tried Depo Provera, so I could still be protected without my parents knowing. I rapidly gained almost 25 pounds and spotted the whole time! As soon as could I switched back to the patch, now I&#039;m back to my normal weight and no more spotting. The patch never comes off and it takes less then a minute to change. I highly recommend it."
