A member asked:
Is it possible to get really strong period cramps after using contraceptive patch? i've used patch for 3 weeks and this is my week off. really intense
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: Anything is possible. Typically birth control methods such as the patch make periods lighter with less cramping. Consider monitoring for a few months and see how it goes. If you do not get good result over time then you can consider another option
