When to apply the first Evra patch when changing from Vibin mini contraceptive pills?
Hi I'm just switching from Vibin mini contraceptive pills to Evra patches, my question is when should I stick the patch, on the day of spotting or on the day of taking the pill? And if, for example, the first patch sticks on Thursday, the next one also on Thursday or on another day?

The Evra patch should be applied on the first day of withdrawal bleeding. If there is no withdrawal bleeding within five days of taking the last active (hormone-containing) Vibin mini tablet, then it is necessary to exclude pregnancy before starting to use the patches. In addition, an additional method of contraception (e.g. condoms) should be used concomitantly during the first 7 days of using the patches. Each patch should be removed and replaced with a new patch on the same day of the week, i.e. if the first one was put on Thursday, then all subsequent ones will also have to be put on on Thursdays. I attach the leaflet of the drug, where it is described exactly how to use Evra anti-adhesive patches: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/28646/evra-system-transdermalny/ulotka
