Hi girls, can anyone share their experience on the birth control patch? I’ve been on the pill for a while now and it made me gain a lot of weight and makes me depressed so my doctor recommended the patch but idk anyone who uses them

ultimately bc reacts differently to everyone, so hearing how it went for others won't mean too much on how it'll go for you

I’ve been on the pill since 19, and I agree it did add water weight but I also have been a very skinny woman my whole life without trying. I did stop it and lost those few pounds around my waist that made me look flabby. I started it again and it does infact make me feel depressed. Also I think what ever acne you have, pauses it and keeps it there. Lowkey. I stopped and 1 spot I hated just went away. I’m considering an insertion

She wasn’t asking about the pill she’s asking about the patch
