"i have been on the evra patches for about 7 months and have decided after 4 months of using it to keep it on without a break (after my gp said it would be okay to do so) to avoid my horrible periods. i was taking the pill before and always forgot to take it and have had a few &#039;scares&#039; in the past so i decided it was time for change as i am still young and not ready for a shock pregnancy! i haven&#039;t had the best experience with it to begin with as i have heavy spotting after every patch change which is very annoying. it lasts days to my boyfriends and my own annoyance! no baby though and my breasts feel bigger."
