m 17 years old and have been with my boyfriend for quite some time now. About 2 years back, I started on the
patch as a form of birth control (
ortho evra) and have had no problems with it. At the beginning of September, however, my pharmacy screwed up my prescription (I wont get into details) and left me without the patch for a month. I think my last period (when I removed my last patch) was around September 5-12, start to end (I'm not completely sure).
