"I used the patch for 5 months. I really enjoyed not having to take a pill every day, and it was extremely effective.  Yet the mood swings where HORRIBLE,  I am a fairly unemotional woman but the patch made me unbelievablely weepy for no reason at all. My boyfriend of 4 was kind enough to point out that that wasn't normal me behavior. As for the rest of the detials, I had no issues with headaches, nausea, or breast tenderness.  The patch left a bit of a residue after you took it off and constantly pulled up on the corners, but I only really had one time when I was seriously worried that it might fall off. Very offten there was fabric residue along the edge of the patch and I would usually have ingrown hairs or small pimpels growing under it."
