Holy crap that's awful.
They'll probably re-formulate it in less than a year and push it again. I'm no drug manufacturer, but couldn't they just put less estrogen on the damn patch, and it would be just like the pill?
Hm.. rocket science apparently.

i was on the patch for about 4 months before it started irritating my skin so badly i'd scratch it off. It left marks that looked like scar tissue for weeks after they'd been removed. (granted im allergic to latex...) but yeah i heard about the patch being pulled. right now im on the shot, its awesome i never have a period except a really small one once every 3 months or so..the prob with it is that it can cause ostioperosis..so i think ill be going back to the pill soon.
