fourth week on the patch, sex allowed?
| Tue, 09-07-2004 - 7:32pm |
Hi I'm on my "patch free week" and I've used the patch for a lil over a year now. I've always wondered if I should use backup contraception on the fourth week? I have a very fiesty boyfriend this week for some reason :-\
Thanks

If you have been using your patch correctly you should be quite safe during your patch free week. Take a look at "Taking your pills correctly" in the FAQs at the top of the board for tips on getting the most from your hormonal method. That post covers the patch and ring as well as pills. Thanks for posting.
Good luck,
Jill
