The patch?

Question

I have tried two different kinds of birth control pills and also the ring, but had to quit them all because they caused my hormones to go completely crazy and I was an emotional wreck all the time. I've heard good things about the patch, but nothing about how it affects us emotionally. Please let me know your experience or recommend any form of bc that is minimally intrusive on emotions! Thanks :)

Answer

I'm actually on the patch and i really enjoy it! It didn't make me gain weight, it didn't make me moody, but I think my boobs got a little bigger but not like to the extreme lol. It looks just like a band-aid and on Sunday you stick "the patch" on your butt for a whole week and next Sunday you take it off and put a new one on your opposite butt cheek. And you do the same for the following week. But on the fourth week you take it off and that's when you have your period. As your body gets used to the patch, your periods become shorter, and you have less cramps PLUS helps with pimples!! I recommend it (sorry for my booty pic but had to show how the patch looks) ps my boyfriend doesn't mind it at all when we are intimate and when you wear a bikini you can't see it!
