What should I do if I have white spots/dots on the Evra patch on my thigh?

The plaster came in inclusions.

Tell me, what to do? Yesterday I glued the 2nd plaster, I decided to stick it not as usual on my hand, but to try it on my thigh.
Today I look, there are some white inclusions on the plaster, small white dots went. You can't see it very much, but if you look closely, it's clear that this usually did not happen. What to do in such a situation?

The patch is applied correctly. Dirt accumulating on the periphery of the patch does not affect its effectiveness. Protection is maintained. The appearance of white spots or dots on the patch is also not a cause for concern. Excessive sweating in the area where the patch was applied can cause discoloration or white spots on the patch. If the skin is very dry, the epidermis may peel off, which can also leave white marks on the patch.

If you have doubts about this situation, it is always worth consulting a doctor who can provide more personalized advice. If you are not able to make a face-to-face visit, I attach a link to the online teleconsultation:

The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book Evra at a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it upon presentation of a prescription:

Hey, how do you feel after the contraceptive patches??? Do you have any side effects??? if so, how long after the beginning did they appear to you??? This is very important to me because I don't know when I can expect these side effects such as headaches etc
