Birth Control
"I&#039;ve been on the patch for about 5 years now and love it. I never had many problems with it. I didn&#039;t gain weight but I typically will get a pimple or 2 the week before my period is supposed to start. I do get a slight skin irritation where I put it on. Only a little itchy and no big deal. I wear mine on my stomach and switch sides to help irritation. I don&#039;t think it hurts that bad to take off it&#039;s like pulling off a bandaid. I have only had 1 fall off and I was swimming every day for a week when it happened. I do notice I am more emotional (and slightly bitchy) while I&#039;m on my period but I put the new one on and I&#039;m fine. definitely would recommend!"
