Properly Evra patches should be used for 3 weeks - changing the patch every week, on the same day of the week, called the "patch change day". After 3 weeks, i.e. after the third patch, you should take a 7-day break. Then start a new pack of patches. The whole cycle lasts 4 weeks - 3 weeks with the patch, 1 week - without.

With properly worn patches, bleeding should regulate after 2-3 cycles.
