If I understand: your Question correctly you have had a period since you made the "mistake" and restarted your patch. If this is correct chances are you are protected! For absolute worry free use another Birth Control method during the this cycle! Hope this helps! Dr Z

Expected : If you started the patch at the wrong time in your cycle, some abnormal bleeding is to be expected. If you just continue your patches, it should be better next cycle. In the meantime, you need to use a backup method of contraception such as condoms. Hope this helps.
