    I've been using this birth control method for almost 3-4 months. I loved it, and had no problem with anything. but these past 2 weeks i'm getting super itchy, and growing small bumps under the patch when replacing them. it's very easy to use, but this has brought me to an effy point. i was doing so good for it to act up on me :'(

    The only problem I have with the patch is that it makes me break-out. I get some pimples that I've never gotten before.

    I went on this form of B.C. due to issues that prevented me from being able to choose other forms, and I have been extremely satisfied ever since! I have been on it for 8 years now. I have never experienced any negative side effects (no acne, no weight gain, no migraines, etc.). I am very happy that I have the xulane patch!
