A member asked:

Hi. i'm on the evra patches and i wanted to skip my period at the end of aug. instead of having a patch-free week starting 29 aug, i decided to start my next cycle of patches. however, i started spotting the monday thereafter and been bleeding since?

It happens sometimes: Even without contraceptive hormones, many women have occasional variation of their mucus discharge, some spotting between periods, a heavier period, a lighter period, a longer or shorter period, or even a missed period. Having one of these symptoms doesn’t necessarily mean a problem, but a call to one’s own doctor can help decide whether or not the coming patch-free week should solve this issue.
