3 months in and still experiencing persistent mild, period like cramping. Patch leaves a bumpy area of skin when removed, very obvious that it had been there even days after removal

Didn't affect me at all physically but it made me very insecure, obsessive, and have terrible relationship anxiety. I didn't feel like myself and took it off after 5 days.

I’ve been on the patch for around 6 months, it’s causing periods every 2 weeks even though I’m using it correctly. The only positive is it’s easy to use and hasn’t caused weight gain.
