Birth Control
"I have been on the patch, Xulane, for over a year and this is my second time being on it due to insurance changes. Can wear it on your upper back/arm or abdomen. I usually switch from my left/right side of my abdomen to hide it under my pants each week for 3 weeks and then remove it for my off week (my period.) It&#039;s easier knowing when I am going to start by using the stickers that come in the box each month I am able to apply to my home calendar that no one sees (then there are stickers you place on the patch so the third patch you know to call in your refill.) It&#039;s a good system but I sometimes start my period in the middle of my third patch instead of my off week. My libido is down somewhat. Doesn&#039;t always stay stuck to my body (scary.)"
