What to do when Evra's "Patch Change Day" has changed?
If my patch change day is Thursday (about 10 p.m.) and after a 7-day break I applied the patch only on Friday (about 14), is there a risk of pregnancy? And when should I apply another patch now, Thursday or Friday?

When a woman wishes to postpone the "Patch Change Day", the current cycle should be completed by removing the third EVRA patch on the right day. During the week when the patch is not used, you can select a new "Patch Change Day" by sticking the first EVRA patch of the next cycle on the selected day. In no case should the interval between the use of the patches exceed 7 consecutive days. The shorter the interval, the greater the risk that the woman will not experience withdrawal bleeding, and in the next cycle of using contraceptive patches, intermenstrual bleeding and spotting may occur. You have moved the "Patch Change Day" to Friday, the next patch should be put on the following Friday. As the break lasted more than 7 days, additional contraceptive protection should be applied for 7 consecutive days after the first patch.
