"previously used oral bc methods, all of which gave me irregular cycles, harsh cramping, etc. md suggested xulane. mylan pharma mfgrs multiple transdermal patches. i&#039;ve been on xulane for over 14 months. i follow a continuous cycle method. only recently (starting oct &#039;15) at least one of the patches in the pack will fall off or not stick properly. i&#039;m looking into tegaderm patches to cover the xulane for the summer season so i can soak in the water with out worry."
