"i have tried three different types of birth control: the pill, which i never remembered, nuvaring, i had terrible side effects and ended up in the hospital due to infection, and ortho evra. i have been on ortho evra for two weeks now and so far it has been ok. my main concern is the red squares left on my skin after i take off the patch. also, the first day of a new patch is pretty intense. i am very tired and sleep more than awake, get very dizzy, and just a little nausea. it really isn&#039;t that big of a deal, because it passes in less than 24 hours and i feel great after that. oh, and no baby!!"
