"so, i started  the patch late january and at first i felt terrible! slowly, the terrible feeling went away and i started my first period with the patch. the cramps were so bad! i couldn&#039;t do anything for the first day because moving made the cramping stonger. also, my bleeding went from 3 tampons a day too using 2 tampons every eight hours and still leaking. i tried working out and eating healthier because my doctor told me that could help. nope! my bleeding has slowly become even worst. the only good thing about the patch is i&#039;m not pregnant!!"
