Xulane patch

Brenda

Hello friends,

Are any of you over 200lbs currently using the patch as an option for birth control and has it been effective for you? My doctor prescribed them since I want something more temporary for now and I just noticed it says “ if you weight more than 198 lbs, this patch may not work well for you”. Trying to figure out if the Nova ring may be my second option.

Thank you.
