A member asked:
Was on birth control patch for a week stop wearing it and had two peroids in one month cramps are harder than ever and im feeling sick am i pregnant?

Possible: Discontinuing a bc patch after a week may cause hormonal imbalance for that particular cycle. The ovary was suppressed for a week and then suppression was stopped. The ovary may be compensating causing the uterus to bleed irregularly, which may lead to increased cramping.
