I have searched the internet over and over and am failing to find the answer I need. I am currently on birth control (the patch) and I suspect I may be pregnant. This is my 3rd week and my off week will start Tuesday. My question is this.....should I take off the patch? -------------------- Wendy: Hardcore Steelers Fan Army Wife to Matt & Mom to Army Brats Emily (2) Natalie (1) And 3 angels never forgotten

Is it possible that birth control can affect the levels of progesterone? -------------------- Wendy: Hardcore Steelers Fan Army Wife to Matt & Mom to Army Brats Emily (2) Natalie (1) And 3 angels never forgotten

Leave the patch on, unless your doctor advises you otherwise. Also it is possible to get pregnant on the birth control that's how I got my first 2 surprises! --------------------

Just a note, but she is pretty health and had to go on medication to regulate her heartbeat b/c of the patch. (obviously she's not on it anymore). KUP!! --------------------

How far along do you think you are? do you still get your period when you are on the patch? I have no clue how any of that works.

Well I had ewcm on August 18th, so worst case lets say I ovulated on the 21st then I'd be 18dpo I guess. I know that doesn't sound too early but I have a history of not getting faint bfps until around 20dpo+

I do get my period when I am on the patch, you wear it for three weeks then on the fourth week you wear nothing and get your period. Tuesday is when I would take my patch off to get my period.

What would be sickly cruel about this is that we went through four years of infertility to have our first and we are medically not supposed to have more children for a few years.

If you are pregnant, or think you may become pregnant, you should not use the birth control patch. In addition, you should not use ORTHO EVRA if you have any of the following conditions:

I'd say take it off.

Thank you for that quote! I searched their site but could only find things like "what if I WANT to become pregnant...(on the patch) "

I took it off a few days ago.
