Hello, if I put the Evra contraceptive patch on my arm today about 15 minutes ago, peeled it off a moment ago and stuck it somewhere else on my arm, will it still be effective? still the glue stuck very firmly and nothing sticks out or peels off

To @Kasia:
Yes, it would be advisable to apply a new patch on the same (since it has remained on the skin for a short time, it is exceptionally possible to apply a new one to the same area) or a different place.
So I should peel off the patch now and stick a new one in the same place?

To maintain protection, the patch should be applied in the same place - if you want to change where the patch is applied, a new patch must be used.
