Hi. I started using the ortho evra bc patch two months ago, but it fell off early and i am having nausea with some vomiting all day every day for the past 2 weeks, tender, swollen, hot, painful breasts, serious fatigue sleeping 18-22 hours a day, lower back pain, cramping, and slight spotting. Do you think this is due to the birth control or do you think it may be a pregnancy?
Hi, these symptoms could indicate hormonal dysfunction as well as pregnancy. Since you said, that the patch fell off early, there could be a chance of pregnancy. You need to rule out pregnancy first. If that is ruled out then these signs are due to hormonal dysfunction due to the patch falling off.
