A member asked:

My girlfriend has been having stomach cramps for a few days. she's currently on the patch. she changes it on the day she should every time. cause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Blood clots: Any estrogen containing med can increase the risk of blood clots. Severe abdominal pain is a symptom that deserves further evaluation in someone using the patch. Some women stop using condoms when on birth control, which can increase the risk of stds & pelvic infections. Have you been faithful? Has she?
