How much time after the ortho evra protects you from getting pregnant if you don't have your period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you apply the patch when you start your period, then you are protected from day one. If you apply the patch at any other time of your menstrual cycle then allow at least two weeks before the patch is considered effective for contraceptive protection.
