Evra Patch: Simple, Effective, and Convenient Contraceptive Protection
The Evra Patch is a transdermal contraceptive method that delivers a combination of ethinylestradiol (an estrogen) and norelgestromin (a progestin) through your skin. It offers the same effectiveness as oral contraceptives but with the convenience of a once-weekly application, making it a great option for women who prefer not to take a daily pill.
Key Benefits:
- Highly Effective Pregnancy Prevention: Over 99% effective when used correctly.
- Weekly Application: Apply once a week for three weeks, with a one-week patch-free interval—no daily pills required.
- Cycle Control: Helps regulate periods and reduce menstrual symptoms like cramps and heavy bleeding.
- Discreet and Easy to Use: The patch adheres to the skin and delivers hormones consistently for reliable protection.
How to Use:
- Apply a new patch once a week for three consecutive weeks.
- Place the patch on clean, dry skin (e.g., buttocks, stomach, upper arm, or back).
- Week 4 is patch-free, during which you’ll typically have a withdrawal bleed.
- Start a new cycle after the patch-free week.
