The patch

S.
So I'm  starting the patch I went to the doctor on the 31st.  She told me the best time to start is right after my period & since my period ended on the 26th I could start it that day but my pharmacy had to order the patch I won't get it until tomorrow the 2nd.  How long after ur last period is it ok to start ?  Now it's been about 7 days for me.  Any patch users know from experience?
