Your patch should be applied to a clean, dry and hair-free area of the skin. When applying your new patch, do not put it in the same place.
If you miss a dose, you should take it as soon as you remember. Missing one dose but taking it within one day means you will still be protected from pregnancy. If you miss two consecutive doses, you may not be protected from conception, and so you should consider using other methods of protection such as condoms.
If possible, begin taking the pill on the first day of your period. If you begin taking the pill in the first five days of your cycle, you will be immediately protected from pregnancy. If you begin later in your cycle, you will need to use other methods of protection like condoms.
It is recommended that you wait six weeks after having a baby before using some types of pill. Speak to a member of the team about options available to you.
Some types of the pill have been linked to an increased risk of developing breast cancer. If you have a family history of breast cancer, our dedicated team can help you choose a contraceptive option that is appropriate for you.
Side effects differ from person to person when using oral contraceptives. Weight gain may occur but can be managed with regular exercise and a balanced diet.
Normal fertility resumes as soon as you stop taking the pill.
