Can spotting while using Evra patches mean pregnancy?
24.99 zł

I have been using evra patches for over half a year. Intercourse is also fairly regular and the patches are also applied systematically. But this cycle was hard for us mentally, a lot of stress, nerves, but the relationship was still there. Today I had brown intercourse and the last intercourse before that was 13 days ago. What to think ? I don't want to take a break between the patches because we go to the thermal baths. When can I check if I'm not pregnant? Could this spotting mean pregnancy?

A high-sensitivity pregnancy test will be reliable 2-3 weeks after intercourse, but if contraception is used correctly, I see no reason to worry about getting pregnant. Of course, you can take such a test "for peace of mind" :)

Will a blood test from the pharmacy 3 days before menstruation be reliable?

Do you think a test is needed? Isn't that a necessary oanika

If the patches are applied correctly, according to the manufacturer's recommendations, I see no reason to worry about the lack of contraceptive effectiveness. Spotting is a common occurrence when using hormonal contraception. Using the patches without a break for withdrawal bleeding can also cause mid-cycle spotting - a common side effect. Situations such as stress, illness or chronic fatigue have an impact on the cycle picture, but this does not mean a change in the contraceptive effect of Evra.

For information on the types of pregnancy tests and when the test can be taken for the result to be reliable, please refer to the article below:

I'd like to add that now I have the last band-aid, which I take off on Monday
