"i have been on xulane for 1 year and 3 months. i love it. i have tried the pill,nuva ring and mirena and had terrible problems. after my miscarriage march of 2014 i knew it was time to try something new. i had got pregnant on the pill 5 years ago and pregnant with mirena 3 years ago. the patch is amazing. i do get headaches if i&#039;m late to change or if my period goes longer but that&#039;s normal. i&#039;m pleased at how effective it is. my husband and i havnt used condoms or any backup since i got the patch over a year ago and no pregnancy! it&#039;s awesome!!!!!"
