"i&#039;ve been on the patch one month, a complete cycle. i started after my first ever miscarriage, so i was a little weary and nervous of how my periods were going to be since i have been bleeding off and on the past 2-3 months! xulane works amazing for me!! my period is shorter and lighter but i still spot a few times which was expected. but i have literally had no other side effects! i forget it is there! i alternate putting it on each side of my back, above my pants line but below my bra line so no irritation. it has never fallen off, even with bathtubs i had no issues. i have seen a lot of negative comments but i truly think it is just how your body will handle it. the patch is amazing for me, but the pill makes me so sick. i recommend!!"
