"i used the brand name ortho evra for years!! loved it! no problems ever! now i am forced to use this xulane patch, and it is just not the same. 1. my period starts while im on the third patch every month. ortho, it was 5 days exactly after removing. 2. taking a bath it comes off! then its not as sticky. never ever had an ortho patch come off. 3. i have 2 week long periods now. i used to have only 5 day periods. i just don&#039;t like this generic patch whatsoever!!!!"
