Hi, I have a question about evra patches. I have been using them for 4 years and Namely, when I had 3 patches glued, I got my period. I should get a period a week later after removing the patch. I did two pregnancy tests and they were negative. I'm terribly afraid that I may be pregnant.. and then when do I stick a new patch? Do a 7 pumpkin break or immediately stick a new patch?

The occurrence of irregular bleeding is one of the reported side effects of Evra. It does not affect the effectiveness of hormonal contraception. Follow the standard patching regimen (i.e. 7 days break and a new patch): https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/28646/evra-system-transdermalny/apteki If none of the patches have peeled off, there is no risk of pregnancy. I encourage you to consult a gynecologist who will determine the cause of bleeding. I also encourage you to report the side effects of Evra. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane
