A member asked:
My period came after being late for 18 days. i took a hpt; it was negative. i stopped using the patch. could that have messed up my cycle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: When a woman stops birth control patch or pill the next period sometimes can be delayed by several weeks or occasionally longer. Be sure and use another form of birth control unless you're trying to conceive. Even if attempting pregnancy i recommend using condoms until after the first period, then ok to attempt pregnancy.
